About this audiobook

Eight hundred women and children begin a 1,200-mile journey on foot across Japanese-occupied Malaya. At journey's end only 30 will still be alive. This is the story of one woman, of her ordeal, and of how she was saved by the sacrifice of an Australian soldier. It is a story of rare individual courage in the face of certain death, and hope in the face of despair.

    This was a required reading when I was in high school. While I didn’t remember the book I remembered the impression and feeling it had always left with me. 25 years later I have read it again and I’m so glad that I did. It’s such a touching book.
