Description

There was indeed a "Bridge on the River Kwai," but the famous novel and the gripping movie about the bridge were wonderful fiction. In reality, no outside attempt was made to destroy the actual bridge, nor was it built willingly by an obsessed British colonel. It was built at bayonet point by Allied prisoners of war. This book is the equally stirring true account of what happened to those prisoners afterward.
