On December 8, 1941, mere hours after bombing Pearl Harbor, the Japanese invaded Thailand and other points in South Asia. Two American missionaries, Hazel and Loren Hanna, fled north from Thailand into Burma where, for months, they managed field hospitals under fire for the British and Chinese armies. Finally forced to flee, for two months they then trekked several hundred miles, with a company of British commandos, surviving disease, starvation, malnutrition, and gunfire, over deep rivers and numerous ranges of high mountains, to Kunming, China.
This is Loren and Hazel's never published, first-person account of their harrowing adventures, determined devotion to the Allied war effort, and religious faith.
This account was edited and prepared for publication by their grandson, Eric Carl Wolf.
