About this book

A memoir of military imprisonment during WWII. Allied POW's who attempted escapes from other facilities in Germany ended up at Colditz castle. Despite the seriousness of the situation it is filled with hilarious anecdotes of the misbehaviour of the POW's who knew exactly the legal protections afforded POW's and how far they could push their guards. This book includes a description of the famous Colditz glider and how it was built under the noses of the German guards.
