In 1972, when discovered by local hunters on Guam, former tailor Yokoi was widely reported as a ‘no surrender man' who survived, living up to the old Japanese military code of honour. This book is about the reality of such a man (and the ingenuity he applied to ensure his survival), which is very different from the stereotype. This book sheds a different light on the reality of the war in the Pacific while addressing some key issues concerning the nature of Japanese culture in modern times.
