O knihe
This is the story of the largest mass escape of Prisoners of War during World War Two. This extraordinary enterprise surpassed even the famous ""Great Escape"" of 1944 by British and Allied officers from Stalag Luft III - yet few people are even aware of it. The extraordinary events took place at a PoW Camp near Bridgend, South Wales and they continue to raise questions, even today. How many prisoners were actually involved in the break out? And did any of them succeed in getting home? The author, who lived and worked in and around Bridgend for thirty years, has carefully trawled the archives in an attempt to uncover the truth.
The result is a novel which is both honest to the spirit of events and entertaining in its speculation of what may have taken place behind the smokescreen of official misinformation. ""The book is a great read, the story flows nicely at a comfortable pace."" - Maj. John A Thomas MA, TD**, Director of the 1940's Swansea Bay Museum.
