The Changi Camera: A Unique Record of Changi and the Thai-Burma Railway , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 308min
This is the story of how a teenage Australian soldier, George Aspinall, took his remarkable photographs as a prisoner of war of the Japanese, providing a detailed record of those desperate years from 1942-45, when British, Australian, Dutch and American troops were being driven beyond endurance as slave labour for the Imperial Japanese Army.
