The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru: Britain's Forgotten Wartime Tragedy

by TonyBanham (Author)

Synopsis

Almost 2,000 British Prisoners of War were aboard the Japanese freighter Lisbon Maru when an American submarine torpedoed and sank her in October 1942. This book tells the story of those men, from the fighting in Hong Kong, through the sinking, and - for some - to liberation and beyond.
