Emily Coates lived a life many Americans would envy. She grew up in
the Philippine Islands in a diplomatic family, and reached
adulthood when Franklin Delano Roosevelt was in the White House and
Glenn Miller's band was all the rage. Her job with the Army Air
Corps in Manila was exciting until the day the Japanese attacked
Pearl Harbor, rapidly followed by air and sea attacks on Manila. At
twenty-two, invading Japanese took her, her mother, and her sisters
as captives. They ended up in an internment camp, where for nearly
four years they experienced deprivation to an almost unimaginable
degree. Will this pampered American princess collapse under
pressure? Or, will she show the courage that will lead future
generations to call hers the Greatest Generation?
