John D. Lukacs (born February 21, 1977) is an American writer and historian whose work has appeared in USA Today, The New York Times, World War II Magazine, and on ESPN.com. Called "a most impressive authorial debut" by World War II Magazine,<ref name=HN/> Escape From Davao is the true story of the only large-scale group of American prisoners of war to escape from an Imperial Japanese Army prison camp in the Pacific Theater during World War II. The ten escaped POWs, assisted by two Filipino convicts, were the first to break the news of the infamous Bataan Death March, and other atrocities committed by the Japanese, to the world. Lukacs has written on a variety of subjects, usually on military history or sports history, including a bizarre football game played on the site of the nuclear blast that ended World War II, The Atom Bowl.<ref name=NYT/> |
