WWII: From the South Pacific to the Southwest

In April of 1942, the largest U.S. army ever to surrender turned itself over to the Japanese. Thousands of prisoners died in the infamous Bataan Death March that followed. A new novel by UNH Professor Alex Parsons captures the drama of that time. In the Shadows of the Sun also tells the tale of New Mexican farmers forced off their land by the government during the war. We'll talk with Alex about his book and the events that inspired it.
