Sinopsis

The storming of the Corregidor in February 1945 was a dramatic act in the on-going saga of the Pacific war, and a symbolic victory over Japan. Capturing the nature of the fighting in the terrible conditions of jungle warfare in the Pacific theatre, and the character of the men involved, this is the story of war at its most pitiless.

Reseña del editor

"The two-week battle for Corregidor was complicated by the American's gross underestimation of enemy strength: expecting a few hundred demoralized defenders, they encountered more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers and marines deployed in tunnels and caves, every man dedicated to the Bushido code that dictated a fight to the death. As the dust was settling, MacArthur himself came ashore and was greeted by the commander of the victorious U.S. Army troops. 'Sir, ' said Col. George Jones, 'I present to you the Fortress Corregidor' -- a stirring conclusion to a dramatic and well-told story". -- Publishers Weekly
