This book is about " A detailed study of the life and experience of Allied prisoners of war in the camp or jail at Singapore's Changi prison between 1942 and 1945. The structure of the administration, daily life and relations with the Japanese authorities is detailed using memoirs, photographs and official documents. Some reference is also made to the experiences of prisoners of war in Europe. The author shows how many common stereotypes about Changi are not borne out by the facts and also shows us that conditions were very different from those at many other prisons and labour camps . "
