Description

Three Came Home tells the true story of Agnes Keith's experience as a prisoner of war in Borneo during World War II. In 1942, she was captured by the Japanese and imprisoned with her two-year-old son, who would eventually become the central figure in her account.

Despite the harsh conditions and limited rations, Agnes kept detailed notes on scraps of paper, recording her observations of life in the camp and the complex relationships between the prisoners and their captors. Her story is a powerful exploration of resilience, survival, and the human spirit.

This book provides a unique insight into one of the most significant events of the 20th century, and Agnes Keith's remarkable account has become an important part of history.
