8vo, 224 pp., illustrated. First edition. Fine copy in fine dust jacket, not price clipped. Original cloth and dj. Memoir of British airman shot down and captured by the Germans; includes his part in "The Great Escape" from Stalag Luft III. A nightmare experience of what can happen, in any country, when the forces of totalitarianism prevail. A remarkable memoir, not only because the author carries the reader with him with his descriptions of the escape projects, but as a record of the triump of the human spirit over adversity.
