Book excerpt: Ann Bartlett Returns to the Philippines, first published in 1945, is an exciting historical-fiction novel centering on Navy nurse Ann Bartlett and her friend and fellow nurse Evelyn Baldwin; location: the occupied Philippines during World War II. The pair travel from the U.S. to the Philippines and serve as nurses aboard a ship. Upon reaching the Philippines, their adventures begin as Ann boards a lifeboat searching for survivors of a nearby ship that has gone down following a Japanese attack; foggy weather separates the lifeboat from the ship, and when the weather clears, a Japanese airplane machine-guns the boat, forcing the passengers into the water. The story continues with the survivors reaching an island shore, narrow escapes from the Japanese, and a romance. Five ‘Ann Bartlett’ books were published by author Martha Johnson between 1941-1946.
