enemy guns. Like the other members of that heroic band of defenders, Ann lived a life that her imaginations could not have conceived. Working for two days without sleep, going without sufficient food and, above all, realizing that they could hope for no relief, became ordinary events at Bataan. How Ann, a girl with the same hopes and aspirations as any other young American, lived through this ordeal is a story that will stir the imagination and the heart.
Ann Bartlett at Bataan is a sequel to Ann Bartlett: Navy Nurse, a book that told how Ann first joined the Navy. This story continues her adventures and leads her into experiences that only a work conflict could bring. The epic of Bataan's defenders is one that has brought lasting glory to America and this is the stroy of one girl's place in that historic "last stand."
