First Edition. The Soul and the Sea by Donald Cuthbert Eyre and Douglas Bowler is a gripping true account of wartime endurance and survival. Set during World War II, the book recounts the harrowing escape of eleven British and Australian servicemen from Singapore in early 1942, just before the city fell to Japanese forces. With the collapse of British defenses imminent, the men fled to Sumatra and then set out to sea in a small open boat, hoping to reach the safety of India.The journey becomes a test of physical and psychological endurance. Battling rough seas, tropical storms, navigational uncertainty, and the constant threat of capture, the group endures extreme hardship. Food and water run low, sickness spreads, and the men must rely on their wits, courage, and comradeship to survive. Eventually, after weeks of struggle, they are captured by the Japanese and taken as prisoners of war.Eyre and Bowler present a vivid, emotionally charged narrative that explores not only the external dangers of war and the sea but also the inner landscape of the human spirit under pressure. The Soul and the Sea is a powerful story of resilience, hope, and the profound connection between survival, sacrifice, and the will to live.Fiirst edition in tan cloth, gilt lettered to the spine, small neat ownership stamp of JT Liddell to the front endpaper, dust jacket is in good condition, a little light wear to the jacket, very good overall.
