This is the remarkable story of my father, Herbert Henry Miller, who was drafted into the army in August 1942. So begins this book about an ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances during World War II. The writer is Herbert Miller's son, Robert, who was amazed to discover his father's Red Cross war diary at the back of a drawer in the weeks following his 1994 death. The diary was crammed full of his dreams for survival and of the death and destruction he had witnessed as a soldier and a POW. Finding his father's journal became the catalyst for Robert Miller to learn more about his father and his father's war. He spent hours interviewing his mother, the only person who knew of her husband's nightmares and understood that he suffered from life-long posttraumatic stress disorder. Robert also traveled throughout Europe and America interviewing World War II survivors and their families and digging into archives.
