Behind the Lines

W.E.B. Griffin

Behind the Lines is W. E. B. Griffin's powerful novel of World War II -- and the courage, patriotism, and sacrifice of those who fought it. Amidst the 1942 Japanese conquest of the Philippines, a renegade Army officer refuses surrender and forms a formidable resistance force, ready to fight till the end. Meanwhile, at the heart of enemy territory, a Marine leads his team on a perilous mission, facing insurmountable odds.  Deep in the island jungles, the combat continues and the nation's proudest sons fight uncelebrated battles that will win -- or lose -- the war . . .
