This story of courageous people who helped Allied prisoners in WWII, virtually ignored for well over sixty years, has now been documented for the first time in great detail. Blood Brothers not only traces the story of Sabah from humble beginnings in 1872 to a thriving outpost of the British Empire by 1941; it also follows in the footsteps of ordinary Sabahans who, far from remaining passive in the face of superior Japanese forces in WWII, performed extraordinary acts of courage to assist the war effort, especially Australian prisoners of war.Blood Brothers is not only a moving and absorbing tale, it is a wonderful tribute to those who demonstrated courage of the highest order.
