Krátky popis
`I was on a train, and a German soldier began shouting at me and
poking me in the ribs with his machine gun. I just thought that was
it, the game was up . ..'Downed airman Bob Frost faced danger at
every turn as he was smuggled out of France and over the Pyrenees.
Prisoner of war Len Harley went on the run in Italy, surviving
months in hiding and then a hazardous climb over the Abruzzo
mountains with German troops hot on his heels. These are just some
of the stories told in heart-stopping detail as Monty Halls takes
us along the freedom trails out of occupied Europe, from the
immense French escape lines to lesser-known routes in Italy and
Slovenia.Escaping Hitler features spies and traitors, extraordinary
heroism from those who ran the escape routes and offered shelter to
escapees, and great feats of endurance. The SAS in Operation Galia
fought for forty days behind enemy lines in Italy and then,
exhausted and pursued by the enemy, exfiltrated across the Apennine
mountains. And in Slovenia Australian POW Ralph Churches and
British Les Laws orchestrated the largest successful Allied escape
of the entire war.Mixing new research, interviews with survivors
and his own experience of walking the trails, Monty brings the past
to life in this dramatic and gripping slice of military history.
