Remembering Billy: A Daughter's Memories of a Far East POW Survivor
No Customer Reviews
Remembering Billy is the remarkable story of a loving, devoted father and family man with a sad and tragic past. Yet, through sheer determination and self-discipline, he managed to come to terms with his past and fill his life with compassion, kindness and humour. We are introduced to Billy's exceptional story with an account of his service as a telegraphist aboard the ill-fated HMS Exeter during World War 2, including never-before-told details of his involuntary participation in Japan's naval intelligence activities and captivity in a secret prisoner of war camp. For more than sixty years those details were hidden from his family until a chance encounter of two cousins unearthed the buried truth. A truly heart-warming and intimate memoir, Remembering Billy is written through the eyes of his youngest daughter.
