Mactan is a fictional story based on a true incident in WWII. General MacArthur needs to get the wounded out of Manila before the Japanese invade and most likely kill them. Edward Forbisher is ordered to go into Manila ahead of the invasion and find seaworthy transportation for these troops to Australia. The first few chapters put us in the thick of the war in the Philippines and enmesh us in the difficulty of Forbisher's assignment along with his adventures and entanglements on the treacherous trip on a rickety inter-island ferry, Mactan.
These first chapters alternate with a separate story set in the present of Matthew Wintercorn from Texas who lands in Manila anticipating adventure in his new job assignment with the American Red Cross. Wintercorn becomes interested in a photo of the Mactan on a wall at the AMC and seeks to find out the story behind it. Matthew finds more adventure than he ever dreamed, along with a mystery and a love interest.
Both Ed Forbisher and Matthew Wintercorn get into situations they could never have anticipated and find their lives inexplicably linked.

This is not just another WWII war story. It's a story about a specific soldier, his contribution to the war, how it affected him, his sacrifices, his love and much more, plus the roll of the Mactan and what part it played. There is plenty of suspense, intrigue, thrills, and yes, romance. The ending is a shocker which will bring you to tears.Product details

Mactan edition by Edward J McNeill Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Loved reading this exciting WW11 story with the surprise ending that I never expected. Need to read more of this author's works.
Created with the imagination and detail that puts the reader in the same room right next to the characters. McNeil masterfully weaves a double storyline separated by WWII & present day that intersects at the same destination. A five star surprise ending! A great story teller the author once again demonstrates an uncanny skill in joining together rich historical accuracy with an epic tale of interesting characters.
Fast action, many stories leading to a surprising finish. Hard to put down! Can' t wait for Shohet to arrive.
This was a real page-turner and a style of writing making it easy to read. I'd highly recommend it to anyone. It's truly more than a war novel.
Really good book gives you the sense of what it was like to do this incredible adventure. Worth the read
