Reviews

[Norman]

An excellent book written by two of the "prominente" prisoners held by the Nazi's one, Giles Romily a relative of Winston Churchill who as a journalist had been captured in Narvik, Norrway in 1940 and the other Michael Alexander a member of the SBS who had been captured following a commando raid in North Africa and had falsely eluded that he was related to General Alexander. As with all such stories a fascinating read.

[Neil Henning]

I enjoyed the last hundred pages more then the beginning of the book. The beginning was a little tedious. Overall I was disappointed with the book.
