Beschreibung:
Alfred John Evans was a moderate cricketer who played for Oxford University, Hampshire, Kent and England. Perhaps his greater distinction was as a pilot with the Royal Flying Corps in the First World War. He was shot down and interned in Ingolstadt, a camp for persistent escapers and the First World War counterpart to Colditz. This inspired Evans to write The Escaping Club and Escape and Liberation, 1940-45, the latter dedicated to those brave POWs who evaded capture, including the infamous Colditz Castle.
Captivating and exciting stories of RAF prisoners of war escaping from infamous hellholes such as Colditz Castle.
