Synopsis
ISLAND OF THE DAMNED Few men have lived to tell the true story of Devil's Island, the infamous French penal colony off the coast of South America. In this book, a man who survived twenty-one years in this tropical hell tells of men harnessed like animals in chain gangs - of sadism, torture, bloody executions, starvation, leprosy, suicides and homosexuality. He writes of abortive escapes - a few successes and many horrible deaths in shark-infested seas, in jungles swarming with headhunters, or at the hands of bounty hunters. This is a shocking story - one you will never forget.
