A TALE OF --------------- DEFECUT FOR THE ALLIED FORCES DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR IN THE INDOMITABLE JUNGLES OF MALAYA. A ------ PLAN TO BUILD A RAILWAY ACROSS AN INPOSSIBLE GEOGRAPHY. THE UNTOLD HORORS OF THE PRIONESS OF WAR. AN INDIVIDUAL S JOURNEY ANFOLDING THE TRIBULATIONS OF AN ERA ----------------- INTO HISTORY. मलाया-सियामच्या निबिड जंगलात जपान्यांनी बलाढ्य ब्रिटिश सैन्याला शह दिला. अतिशय दुष्टप्राप्य खडतर अशा रेल्वे मार्गाच्या उभारणीचा चंग जपानी सैन्याने बांधला व त्यासाठी तब्बल २,००,००० दोस्त राष्ट्रांच्या ब्रिटिश, ऑस्ट्रेलियन व कॅनेडियन सैनिकांना युद्धबंदी बनवून त्यांच्याकडून हया रेल्वेमार्गाची उभारणी केली. वैयक्तिक पातळीवर ही अमानुषता अनुभवलेल्या एका सैनिकाची ही प्रथमपुरुषी कहाणी, परंतु एका विशिष्ट कालखंडाच्या इतिहासाचे दर्शन घडविणारी अद्भुत कथा.
