'This book has been obviously put together with
great respect for the subject, and considerable design flare. Jack's
paintings and drawings are so evocative of the terrible conditions
and inhumane treatment experienced on the Death Railway, the reader
is left open-mouthed. Illustrations range from technical drawings
of tropical ulcers which would grace a medical textbook, to heartrending
pictures of torture. Photographic images can rarely be as powerful
and moving as these paintings and drawings. The crowning achievement
of the book is that the reader is taken on a journey where horrific
experiences bind men together in comradeship and where human spirit
triumphs'. Dr. K. S. Greenfield
