A Degree of Success through Curiosity
A Degree of Success through Curiosity by David M. Sablan David M. Sablan shares his experiences and personal account growing up during the World War II years on Saipan in this book, A Degree of Success through Curiosity. Because there was a heavy battle between the U.S. forces and the Japanese Imperial Army on Saipan during 1944 (World War II), the idyllic island life under the Japanese regime changed with the arrival of war on Saipan. David and his family fled to the hills when the battle became very intense during the early summer of 1944. There he and his family lived in a well-hidden cave and survived on coconuts, sugarcane, and whatever they could scrounge in the immediate vicinity of the cave.
