Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. Ronald Searle and Philip Meninsky (illustratore). 1st Edition. Rare first edition with number line, signed on the half title by illustrator which reads "With love to John & Carol Philip Meninsky" Philip Meninsky had a unique outlook on prisoners of war under the Japanese. After a first posting to Scotland, he was then sent to the Far East where he was captured in 1942 after the fall of Singapore. He spent the next three years working on the Death Railway where he recorded the lives of POWs by secretly making detailed drawings of camp life. These drawings were subsequently used as evidence in the trials of war criminals.[1] At one point, rendered skeletal by starvation, he developed tropical ulcers on his legs, and was transferred to Chunkai hospital camp, where his limbs were saved from amputation by Edward Dunlop and Major Arthur Moon.[2] His work from this period is largely held by the Imperial War Museum in London, England, but there is at least one in the State Library of Victoria in Australia, and the Australian War Memorial.
