He first led his askaris in Africa and then in Burma's Kabow Valley--otherwise known as the "Valley of Death"--where they fought Japan's elite White Tigers. Nunneley's emotionally searing memoir captures a vanished world, as well as the terror of battling a fierce enemy in close quarters...in a jungle that literally drove men out of their minds. "Enthralling...vivid and compelling...fearlessly honest and powerfully told."--William Boyd. 5 X 7 3/4. 15 B&W Illustrations
