Blair Jr. Joan and Clay
Return from the River Kwai
New York: Simon & Schuster 1979. The movie of the Bridge on the River Kwai was mainly fictional. The horrifying story of what actually happened to the British and Austrialian POWS after the bridge was built was not at all fictional. This book details how 2000 POWS were jammed into a single hold on each of two Japanese ships bound for mines and factories. But both ships were sunk by American submarines. Only 159 of those several thousand survived. And this is their harrowing story told by the survivors to the authors. Although 30 years old this First Edition with a "number line" starting with a "1" to indicate First Printing is in New unread condition with a New unclipped dust jacket. There is a publisher's remainder logo stamped on the bottom edge. The book is bound in gray boards with black spine cloth and die-stamped gilt spine titles. The book measures 6 1/4 by 9 1/2 inches and includes 338 pages. It include endpaper maps in color. . First Edition. Hard Cover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Simon & Schuster Hardcover

Blanchette Louis
Disparus en mer : le silence entourant le naufrage du B.F. le navire des fr�res Bernier dans le Saint-Laurent
Qu�bec: Histo-Graff 2014 � Un drame maritime est survenu dans la nuit du 14 mai 1952 : le navire B.F. des fr�res Bernier de Les M�chins dispara�t dans les eaux froides du Saint-Laurent et emporte avec lui les dix membres de l'�quipage. Les familles des marins n'ont jamais �t� satisfaites des r�ponses re�ues des autorit�s sur les raisons de la disparition du navire et les r�sultats des recherches. L'�pave ne fut retrouv�e qu'en mai 2006. L'annonce publique de la disparition du navire deux semaines apr�s la nuit du drame semble avoir �t� orchestr�e de mani�re d�lib�r�e. L'auteur d�crit l'histoire tumultueuse du navire pr�sente les �tapes du suivi du dossier par les autorit�s et d�voile la correspondance des familles avec le minist�re f�d�ral des Transports. Le livre situe l'�v�nement dans son contexte historique et jette un �clairage nouveau sur ce drame de la navigation qui a �branl� la communaut� maritime et l'a laiss�e sans r�ponse pendant des d�cennies.� Histo-Graff paperback
