"The sensational story of the R.A.F. navigator whose third escape ended triumphantly in a charge with the Russian Cossacks through the German lines"

"Not many soldiers of World War II can claim to have taken part in a cavalry charge. But then, very few escapers from a German prison-camp happened to join forces with a Cossack regiment. This book tells how a very brave young Jew stood up to the Germans, even when recapture might have meant a concentration camp."

Memoir by an RAF navigator of his escape from a POW camp during the Second World War.
