Braly was Operations Officer of Harbor Defense headquarters in Corregidor during the Philippine defense campaign. This book is a detailed personal account which begins with the surrender on Corregidor. As a senior officer, Braly received slightly better treatment as a prisoner of war, together with Gen. Jonathan Wainwright and other generals and colonels.
