Paperback. Condition: Fair. One of the greatest Pacific war stories never told.  On April 4, 1943, ten American prisoners of war and two Filipino convicts--nicknamed the "Davao Dozen"--executed a daring escape from one of Japan's most notorious prison camps.

"Like the event it covers, Escape from Davao is unique. You are holding in your hands the story of the only successful American group escape from a Japanese camp."--James Bradley, author of Flags of Our Fathers.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. On 13 May 1940, Winston Churchill stood before the House of Parliament to deliver his first speech as prime minister.
