Full Description
From Liverpool to the Far East. From freedom to slavery. From civilisation to barbarism. Join Johnny on his journey from the safety and familiarity of his home in Liverpool to the horrors of the Japanese prisoner of war camps, and back again. The author, Mike Berry, brings to life the tale of his father's suffering and survival and will apprise the reader of the most gruesome, inhumane experiences endured by him and his comrades.
When Johnny Came Marching Home is an inspirational story of strength, determination and victory in the harshest conditions, it is a detailed account of the heinous crimes the Japanese committed during World War Two, and it is a reminder to the world that we must never forget.
