About the book

"This is the compelling account of Mawdsley's four years in and out of Burma. There he witnessed the regime's genocidal persecution of Burma's border people and the inhumanity of the prisons. He had suspended the promise of academic success and a comfortable family life in England, to pursue instead something more purposeful - and with quite extraordinary consequences." "Although Mawdsley rejects any claim of bravery, it is hard to imagine how this young man was able to endure such physical ardour and despairing isolation. This is a story of rare courage, compassion and a belief in seeking out truth and justice at whatever cost."--BOOK JACKET.
