Book Reviews of My Hitch in Hell: The Bataan Death March (Memories of War)
Book Review: The limit of human endurance and of survival is told here.
Summary: 5 Stars
An uncompromising story of the war in the Philippines, the drama of the fighting on Bataan, and the dreams, goals and anguish of a survivor of the Infamous Bataan Death March.
The survivors returned with their heads hung low, and arrived back into the United States quietly, anonymously, without any fanfare or banners waving to welcome them home.
There were no acknowledgments of any kind for these brave survivors of a vicious enemy.
This is a first person account of horror, survival and dreams of one young soldier. This is not a racorous book, but it is not a pleasant story. It's a realistic story of man's
fight for survival while keeping his ideals intact.
Tenney's searing wartime experiences of the past and his gracious acceptance of the young Japanese of the present, bring a unique perspective to the current debates over Japan's
wartime culpability, the morality of the atomic bombs, and American-Japanese relations today.
