Description

Within the spring of 1974, Second Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda of the Japanese army made world headlines when he emerged from the Philippine jungle after a thirty-year ordeal. Hunted in turn by American troops, the Philippine police, hostile islanders, and successive Japanese search parties, Onoda had skillfully outmaneuvered all his pursuers, convinced that World War II was once still being fought and that sooner or later his fellow soldiers would return victorious. This account of the ones years is an epic tale of the desire to continue to exist that provides a rare glimpse of man’s invincible spirit, resourcefulness, and ingenuity. A hero to his folks, Onoda wrote down his experiences soon after his return to civilization. This book was once translated into English the next year and has enjoyed an approving target market ever since.
