Includes over 30 illustrations As in Nazi occupied countries that were liberated by the Allies, horrible crimes had been uncovered, perpetrated in the name of superior culture on defenceless civilians and prisoners of war. As the emaciated American, British, Australian soldiers emerged from the prisoner of war camps with barbaric tales of torture, mistreatment and neglect, it was clear that justice must be sought. The U.S. Military fixed on two Japanese generals who were foremost in causing and ordering these outrages, the conqueror of Malaya Tomoyuki Yamahsita and the notorious “Death March” Masaharu Homma. Lt. Col. Kenworthy was a member of the U.S. military police assigned to the Philippines and saw at first hand the military tribunal ordered at the express command of General MacArthur. He was detailed to guard both Yamashita and Homma during the trial and was able to view their reactions to the detailed evidence that was used against them. He was determined to write this account of this momentous event, he recorded not only the evidence of the crimes but also the stoic calm with which the two generals faced the weight of Allied Justice. A fascinating sidelight on the ending of the World War Two.

By the author of "Trammel's Trace-The First Road to Texas from the North."Houston oilmen. A TV repairman. Some tough Texas lawmen. An MIT-educated electrical engineer, and the self-proclaimed "world's greatest underwater treasure hunter." These are just some of the men who believed the treasure legend of Hendricks Lake in east Texas enough to search for silver there.For over 150 years, people have heard the tale that Jean Lafitte plundered the Spanish brig Santa Rosa in Matagorda Bay in 1816. His caravan of six wagonloads of silver headed north along Trammel's Trace but was overtaken by soldiers. Rather than give up the silver, the wagons were cut loose and rolled into Hendricks Lake. At least that what the legend says.By combining meticulous historical research with personal accounts, this work brings the story of these characters to life. W.C. Jameson (author of The Lost Canyon of Gold), says "this book is a compelling history artfully wrought by an excellent writer with an intimate connection to the land and the people." The book is supported by a website (www.hendrickslake.com) and a Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/hendrickslake/) to keep readers engaged in the ongoing stories around the Hendricks Lake treasure.
