Of the 1,104 Japanese in the camp, 234 were killed and 108 wounded. A similar incident at Featherstone Camp, Wellington, New Zealand left 48 dead and 63 wounded. In each case it appeared they would rather seek death than freedom. Why was this so? 224 x 143mm., pp. xvi, 225, b/w plates, biblio., index. Contents, no inscriptions; d.j., sl. rub. front/back/edges. NEAR FINE/VG+ ISBN: 0702212261
