This story of the invasion of Hong Kong by the Japanese in World War II, attacked the same day as Pearl Harbor, relates the first-hand experience of a thirty-six-year-old Standard Oil employee: the escape across Hong Kong harbor while bombs are falling, hiding in Victoria hills, and the subsequent internment in a prison camp. The hopeful and hopeless situations in the fight for survival are relayed in detail, followed with the jubilation of repatriation.
