McKENZIE, Arthur. Singapore: We Got Away - Or Did We. ix, 157p. Bishop Auckland: Pentland, 1995. ISBN: 185821310X.

One man's tale of escape and capture at the fall of Singapore. He was then a 19-year-old RAF radio operator evacuated in a Chinese river tug taken into naval service, which was caught and sunk by a Japanese force in the Banka Strait. He reached shore but became a POW. Very evocative.
