Synopsis
In 1978 Warren Fellows was convicted of heroin trafficking between Thailand and Australia. He was sentenced to life imprisonment in the notorious Bang Kwang prison - better known as the Bangkok Hilton. It was the beginning of 12 years of hell in a place where sewer rats and cockroaches are the only nutritious food, where prison guards laugh as they deliver pulverising blows and where the worst punishment is the khun deo - solitary confinement, Thai style. The Damage Done is one man's story of an unthinkable nightmare. It is not Warren Fellows' plea for forgiveness nor his denial of guilt, but a story of endurance and survival and the abuse of human rights during the decade of a life wasted in leg irons. It is an essential read: hearbreaking, fascinating and impossible to put down.

A MUST READ - BRILLIANT
Not much I can say, expect Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant. I read it in a day!

Excellent And Frightening
After visiting this jail when in Thailand i heard about this book and Warren Fellows from Prisoners Abroad.

Its true story and a frightening one too, which i might add should teach all readers something,"DO NOT DEAL OR TAKE DRUGS IN THAILAND".

It may be known as the "LAND OF SMILES" but you wont be smiling if you get caught

This is a book i could not put down and read in a few hours, only problem is, its was not long enough i wanted more more more

Superb & Sickening
Ok, so i read this book in about 4 hours and could not put it down.
It was lent to me by a friend and i was not dissapointed. Whilst i agree that this man should have been sent to prison i cannot stop thinking about what the poor soul went through whilst there.
I would defiantly recommend this one to people who have half a strong stomach!
