520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Personal account of an American woman married to a logging engineer, who worked in northern Luzon, where the two stayed. When the war started, Mrs. Whitfield was evacuated to Manila but her husband Norman stayed on in Baguio. Mrs. Whitfield, in Manila, was interned by the Japanese in Santo Tomas Internment Camp, and tried to survive as best she could, making friends.<br/><br/>She describes living conditions in the camp, and how she found out her husband was interned in Baguio. She managed to get permission to go to Baguio and was reunited with her husband in Camp Holmes in December 1943. She and her husband spent a year in Camp Holmes, and were moved to Bilibid a year later, where they were freed in February 1945.<br/><br/>The original manuscript was written shortly after the war, to help heal the wounds, but it was shelved for over fifty years. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
