I hope Elizabeth van Kampen publishes her story in a book. The Web is a good way to share her account with the world. However, I fear it may not be a good long-term storage mechanism. I would hate to see her tale lost after she dies and then something goes bad with her site.
From the site:
After a wonderful youth in the Dutch East Indies, today Indonesia, my family and I went through three and a half years Japanese occupation. I lost my father, I lost the country I loved, I lost everything, but I kept my memories.
My son advised me to start a website and write all those memories down. So here I am, 79 years old, sitting behind my computer, going back to the Dutch East Indies.
