The Thomas family who lived in Manila, was interned in Santo Thomas Internment Camp along with some 3790 Americans and other nationalities for the duration of World War II. During these years, teenage Elizabeth "Bim" Thomas kept well-hidden journals and a diary in camp from which she draws her story. She had a keen eye for detail. The story abounds in sharp observations and nuanced insights of internee life. The suspense-filled last weeks leading u to liberation are particularly spell-binding.Publisher : Regina Books (January 1, 2003)
