1954 — 8vo., First Edition, with portrait frontispiece and folding map coloured in outline, some faint offsetting from fold-ins to free endpapers; black cloth, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy in price-clipped dustwrapper, the latter mildly rubbed at extremities. 'This is perhaps the most horrifying and amazing escape during a war that was probably richer in escape stories than any war that was ever fought' (H.E. Bates). This classic account was written by the author as an expanded version of the brief outline contained in Brickhill's 'Escape - or Die' (1952). VERY SCARCE IN THE DUSTWRAPPER. Enser, p.405
