Arthur Thitherington has led the fight for justice for the treatment the POWs received at the hands of the Japanese. For more than 50 years he has battled to gain a meaningful apology from the Japanese Government and for compensation for what he and his comrades suffered.
Kinkaseki: One Day at a Time details exactly what happened to the author and others during the brutal years spent as a prisoner in Japanese slave labour camps.
"The scars on my body have healed, but there remain scars that I am unable to show. "Twenty years old when the Japanese took me prisoner, I spent my twenty-first birthday working in the copper mine at Kinkaseki. Almost four years of irrecoverable youth were left in the depths of that mine. I do not forget. I do not forgive" - Arthur Titherington
