Hell's Guest

In the summer of 1941 Glenn Frazier was a sixteen-year-old boy from the South Alabama farm country. Five months later, an underage U.S. Army volunteer, he found himself thrust into a war of an unimaginable brutality and became a hero of the defense of Bataan, a survivor of the brutal Death March and of three harrowing years in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. This is his story.

Glenn Frazier's harrowing and heroic story is a constant reminder that the Second World War wasn't the good war of our subsequent mythologizing, but the worst war ever, where young men from the heartland sacrificed their innocence, and often a whole lot more, to create the world we now enjoy. Frazier's experience, detailed here in this remarkable book, is at once ironic, courageous, horrifying and ultimately redeeming, and he tells it as only an honest soldier can straight from the heart.
