Description
Diary written by journalist Gordon Cade Burnett, compiled for the most part whilst a prisoner of war in Stanley Camp, Hong Kong between 1942 and 1945. These extensive records contain much personal data and painstaking accounts of daily life, written in a miniscule script. Also included are methodically completed charts and diagrams.
