The Jersey brothers : a missing naval officer in the Pacific and his family's quest to bring him home / Sally Mott Freeman.

Summary:

"From the home front to Roosevelt's White House, and Pearl Harbor to Midway and Bataan, [this] is the story ... of an ordinary young man who shows extraordinary courage as the Japanese do everything short of killing him. And it is, above all, a story of brotherly love: of three men finding their loyalty to each other tested under the tortures of war--and knowing that their success or failure to save their youngest brother will shape their family forever"--Amazon.com.
