About the book

Tenney's searing wartime experiences and a subsequent close friendship with a Japanese exchange student bring a unique perspective to the current debates over Japan's wartime culpability, the morality of the atomic bombings, and relations today between Japanese and Americans. My Hitch in Hell is a first-person account of one of the twentieth century's great tragedies and a prisoner survival epic that contains inspiring lessons for everyone.

First sentence: At 12:25 P.M. on December 8, 1941, while bivouacked around Clark Field, the large U.S. air base in the Philippines, we heard the reassuring sound of planes overhead.
