It is to John Toland's tremendous credit that so much information about the Second World War has been collected for countless generations. But Not In Shame represents Toland's incalculable hours of research, traveling throughout the former Pacific Theater not long after so many bitter battles had ended. Unlike many early WWII scholars, Toland's writing style is surprisingly contemporary, comparable to current historical writers. But Not In Shame is a volume of detailed anecdotes and play-by-play accounting of the America's desperate dawn days of WWII. Much of Toland's writing centers around the Japanese invasion of the Philippines and the climax of Midway with great stories of the men and women at Pearl Harbor, Wake, Guam and the atrocities of the march from Bataan as well. An excellent book that will provide readers with perhaps one of the best understandings of the events surrounding the Filipino-American retreat to Bataan and Corregidor and their subsequent fall.
