Kinkaseki: One day at a Time

"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. Arthur Titherington has led the fight for justice over 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. In the pages of this heart-breaking memoir, he details exactly what happened to him during those terrible, terrible years. His honesty and frankness are both inspiring and moving.
