One of the best

I have read over fifty book on Bataan, this is one of the most discriptive of the horror the japs placed our men under. Good read and excellent content.

Amazing Story & Account of Bataan March

I have to say, this book is just amazing. Abel Ortega Jr. did a fantastic job and has obviously spent much time and dedication writing this book. Abel Ortega Sr. is one of the last surviving POW's and probably has the best account of the events ever recorded. There are such amazing stories and many testimonies of how God protected him through all the unbearable circumstances. There are actual copies of documents and photos throughout the book. It is worth every penny, especially if you are a history buff.
