Acerca de esta escucha

Before General MacArthur could fulfill his stirring promise of "I shall return" and retake the Philippines from Japanese control, a remarkable rescue mission would have to take place. Captured American soldiers, emaciated and ill from brutal mistreatment, were still being held at the notorious Cabanatuan prison camp. A small band of Army Rangers set out on a daring rescue effort: to penetrate thirty miles into Japanese-controlled territory, storm the camp, and escape with the POWs, carrying them if necessary.

Breuer recounts in searing, meticulous detail the full story of this thrilling true-life adventure and inspiring testament to American heroism and grit.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An exciting narrative presented by a first-rate storyteller." (Publishers Weekly)
"The book's great virtue is that it allows a number of the rapidly diminishing band of survivors of the whole experience to have their say." (Booklist)

Easy to follow and context is good. I only ding the narrator because he reads the story to happily. His upbeat voice and speed makes the story and some quotes appear humorous when they are not.

Great story. I only ding the narration

This is a true story of honor and courage, of those that laid everything on the altar of sacrifice for the freedom of our children and our children’s children.

Great story! the only thing I didn't like about it was that it went off on tangents a lot as to the history of the Philippines during the war. so on and so forth instead of sticking to the story. but other than that it was a great story

good listening

The quality of the narration and the gripping nature of the story of the rescue of several hundred American POW's made this one of the best audible books I've listened to in the last few years. Higly, highly recommended for WWII buffs as well as for those who like an adventure.

A Great Story

The stories and background leading up to the rescue do a great job of making you understand the isolation of the POWs. The details of the men who made the rescue, and all those who helped along the way are incredible. The narrator seemed to fit right into the era.

Amazing story, heroic strength of the POWs.

The narrator should have taken a few minutes to understand how to pronounce locations and words that he was not familiar with. Instead, the narrator insisted on a very Americanized pronunciation of everything. He doesn't even say Honolulu correctly.

It's hard to focus on the story when the narrator is mispronouncing words every other sentence. I don't think I'm asking for much when the correct pronunciation is a simple Google search.

Amazing story, terrible narration

The training just to get to the point of rescue of the POWs,and of course the group of guerrillas trying their best to fight the Japanese army.

The story of others trying their best to get aid to the POWs those brave people,and the 9th rangers

this is an awesome story and every American should listen to it to understand what real patriotism is. The narrator is very good at getting the message across.

Awesome Book.
