Summary: 5 Stars

This is one of the best written biographies about American POWs I have ever read. This is the story of Everett Alvarez jr. He was the longest held American POW held in North Vietnam during the Vietnam War. Despite of having to go through isolation, starvation and other kind of torture, he made it.
