Australian War Diaries of a Japanese P.O.W. is a remarkable story
of survival and the endurance of Australian spirit in the face of
adversity. Fred Lasslett went down with the HMAS Perth off
Indonesia, and was captured by the Japanese. He spent the remainder
of the war in POW camps in Indonesia and Japan, but through it all
maintained a diary in the form of letters home to his "elusive
girl", written on cigarette paper and preserved to this day. Fred's
diaries include amazing stories of escape and recapture, with the
author ultimately facing a Japanese firing squad and telling how he
survived. These letters reveal a spirit unshaken in the face of
long imprisonment, failed escape attempts and dreary conditions in
the Japanese work camp. Grim, unquenchable, uplifting; Australian
War Diaries of a Japanese P.O.W. is sure to inspire.
