Researched and written by Jan A. Krancher

Survivors' accounts of the Japanese occupation in WWII and eyewitness stories of the ensuing struggle for an independent Indonesia. Unlike the story of the liberation of the Netherlands, the liberators in Japanese occupied Dutch East Indies in most area's were very long in coming. Instead, the WWII prisoners of the Japanese, particularly the civilians, became the targets of the nationalists. The book covers the Revolutionary period following the Japanese surrender. A must for those who wish to share their own experience with family and neighbours but did not have context for this.

Paperback, 288 pages, Chronology, glossary, library binding. Limited supply. A general Dutch/Indonesia WWII history title.
