In a Vietcong POW camp, Rowe endured beri-beri, dysentery, and tropical fungus diseases. He suffered grueling psychological and physical torment.

His survival is testimony to the disciplined human spirit.
His story is gripping.

reviewed Five Years to Freedom: The Story of a Vietnam POW on December 15, 2011 Five Years to Freedom: The Story of a Vietnam POW
A not to be forgotten account by James 'Nick' Rowe. A US Green Beret captured in Vietnam and held for 5 years under the toughest of conditions.
The reader will find that most of this book is designated to his ordeal with a small amount at the beginning on his training and his readying himself for the mission and subsequent capture, then at the end his escape and return to the US. The majority of the book is a very detailed retelling of his time with the Viet Cong as a prisoner of war.
Sometimes it can be draining reading such high detail for so long, but it is an important book that anyone interested in POW history, War history or most especially a humans ability to survive under elevated levels of deprivation and starvation, should read.
