When Freedom Calls: Great Escapes of the Second World War

Each prisoner of war who decides to escape is different but they all have one thing in common: courage.The flame that spurs prisoners of war to escape springs from varied sources. For some of the Second-World-War prisoners, whose stories are told in this book, the alternative to escape was death. Others felt that confinement and boredom were destroying their minds and escape was the only method of staying sane. In one of the eleven adventures Robert Jackson has chosen, the motive was love.
