Dorothy Still Danner

In an unusual World War II memoir, Danner describes her life as a POW in Manila for 3 years in an American hospital and outside Los Ba±os. She and 11 other nurses suffered deprivation with a determined toughness and humor until their liberation on the day they were scheduled for execution. Unlike other "war stories" from the era, she continues her account to include the adjustments, depressions, and guilt which she experienced after returning to the States.
