The Forgotten Ones: Women And Children Under Nippon (1992) By Shirley Fenton Huie
 
In 1942 in Indonesia, 70,000 women and children and 35,000 men were captured and marched into prison camps by the victorious Japanese. Women & children were separated from the men and, for 3 and a half tragic years all contact between loved ones ceased. Shirley Huie interviewed more than 120 survivors now living in Australia & the result is a kaleidoscope of the terrible experiences of their prison camp life. Interned without knowing when freedom would come, these women - emaciated and starving - survived seemingly impossible odds to bring themselves and their children back to peace and safety.
