Full Description
The journalist and broadcaster Robert Kee was an RAF bomber pilot in the war, was shot down, captured and spent three years and three months in a German POW camp. After several false starts Kee successfully escaped. In compelling detail, he describes his desperate journey across Poland, a journey that meant running the gauntlet of Nazism. Written like a novel, and indeed published as such in 1947 to wide acclaim, this book is in fact an autobiography and 'arguably the best POW book ever written' The Times.
