Captured Honor (Paperback)
POW Survival in the Philippines and Japan
Bob Wodnik
Northwest author Bob Wodnik masterfully depicts the agonizing experiences suffered by real American prisoners of war during World War II. As counterpoint to the horror of Japanese concentration camps, letters hoarded by a quiet hotel night clerk provide intriguing glimpses of hometown life back in the states.

From the Doolittle Raid to a German Stalag
Colonel C. Ross Greening
Compiled and edited by Dorothy Greening and Karen Morgan Driscoll
WSU art graduate Ross Greening painted and wrote a one-of-a-kind record of action in World War II. He piloted a B-25 in the 1942 Doolittle Raid, was shot down over Italy in 1943, escaped from a POW train, hid out in the mountains of northern Italy, and ended up in a German stalag. His remembrances, as well as his remarkable artwork illustrating the events of this era, make compelling reading.
