In his narrative, the author provides an engaging exploration regarding the treatment of military personnel in captivity during their time as a POW. He provides detailed background and context from his own experience that will command every reader’s attention from the very beginning. The author takes them on an unforgettable journey that is filled with candor and life stories from the POW camps. While in captivity, Ellis and the other POWs continued to be challenged in the true meaning of character, discipline, integrity, and faith, both mentally and physically, every day.
