Reviews

[A] highly emotional account of the brief life of the USS Flier ... heartbreaking detail ... [T]here is more to Campbell's story than the ordeal of these eight men... Campbell puts the rescue into a larger context. We get mostly untold stories of Muslim resistance fighters and American missionaries living in the Philippines, and one surprising account of an American soldier of Philippine descent... Campbell also shows us the peculiar dangers of Pacific submarine warfare. --Bill Kent, Philadelphia Inquirer
