About This Item
ABC Books for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, 1995. Softcover. Very Good +. AUST MILITARYReminiscences of Australian soldiers. George Aspinall tells how he managed to retain his Brownie camera when interned in Changi prisoner of war camp and continued practising his hobby, which could now mean death.In THE CHANGI CAMERA, acclaimed author Tim Bowden presents a unique record of one Australian soldier's experience of the fall of Singapore, captivity in Changi and enduring the hell of the Thai-Burma Railway. George Aspinall was a keen photographer and, even in the very worst of conditions, he managed to take photos, process them and so preserve for later generations the reality of incarceration. Along with George's own memories of those years, Tim Bowden has written a gripping and authoritative overview of what happened in Changi and on the Railway. This powerful narrative and unique collection of almost one hundred photographs combine to give us a raw and graphic account of just what George and thousands of his fellow Australians endured144 p. : ill., facsims., maps, ports. ; 23 cm. #011022Aspinall, George, 1923-1991. | Changi POW Camp (Changi, Singapore) | World War, 1939-1945 -- Prisoners and prisons, Japanese. | Prisoners of war -- Singapore -- Changi. | World War, 1939-1945 -- Personal narratives, Australian. | Prisoners of war -- Australia. | World War, 1939-1945 -- Photography.
