"An important and worthy epitaph to the agony of the G.I.'s whose unique American experience is now finally receiving the attention it merits." ( New York Times Book Review ) During World War II, prisoners of war were required by the Geneva Conventions to be treated according to established rules. But in late 1944, when a large number of Americans were captured or surrendered during the Battle of the Bulge and elsewhere, their captors had different plans. Those who were Jewish or from some other "undesirable" ethnic or religious group were separated from their fellow captives and sent to the brutal slave-labor camp at Berga. Until now, the story of what these men endured has been a well-guarded secret. "Whitlock's efforts at rescuing this story from relative obscurity are certainly praiseworthy...the personal accounts of former POWs in Given Up for Dead give the hardships of capture and imprisonment--not to mention the years spent wrestling with the physical and psychological scars--a human face." ( New Leader )
