"Wow, this book was very good! It tells of Jim Thompson, longest held POW, 11 yrs I believe. It will make you cry and develope an intense respect and awe at those who have and currently serve to protect our freedoms...God Bless Our Soldiers!"
"Not our most famous POW but James Thompson is America's longest held POW serving over 9 years in a prisoner of war camp. This book deals with that ordeal as well as they years he spent afterwards struggling to return to a world that wasn't ready for him."
