DEFIANT by Alvin Townley
In a spirit reminiscent of UNBROKEN, Alvin Townley’s DEFIANT is a gripping Vietnam War narrative about the American POWs in one of Vietnam’s most brutal prisons. These men endured horrific conditions – starvation, sickness, isolation, and savage torture. With great bravery and determination, the POWs sought to uphold their Code of Conduct and fight the North Vietnamese at every turn, creating an underground resistance.
