13 Days, the Chronicle of an Escape from a German Prison

by Captain J. A. L. Caunter

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

خاطرات یک زندانی بریتانیا در آلمان طی جنگ جهانی اول و ماجرای فرارش از اسارت که سیزده روز طول کشید.
داستان جذابیت خاصی نداره، چون نویسنده هم خود همین اسیر بریتانیایی بوده که خاطراتش رو نوشته، کار هنری هم به حساب نمیاد.
ولی کتاب روانی بود و راحت خونده شد. کمابیش هیجانی هم داشت، ولی نه چندان.
از اون کتاب‌هایی بود که وقتی نمیخوای ذهنت درگیر بشه، بخونی و تموم کنی و بعد هم فراموش کنی.

[Jerimy Stoll]

A first-person account of a British Officer during WWI who was able to escape from a German prison. I found this account to be fascinating, especially the techniques the Officer used to evade capture. It is a short document and adds insight into how prisoners-of-war were treated and kept during one of the world's worst wars. I would recommend this account to war buffs, history enthusiasts, or anyone looking for an engaging short read.

Interesting easy read

[Naulayne Raiche Enders]

Easy read. The historical aspect was informative. Well worth the time.

[Naomi]

A quick and easy read. Just not a particularly interesting one, to me. The author's rhetoric, while understandable, gets a bit tiresome in places.
