| 0953503658 | Open Road to Faraway: Escapes from Nazi POW Camps 1941-1945 | Winton, Andrew Sneddon | Cualann Press | 2001 | The author came from Woolfords, near Lanark and joined the RAF soon after the start of the Second World War. He was shot down over Germany in 1941 and during his incarceration in prisoner of war camps he made a number of escapes, one of them resulting in a spell at the dreaded Buchenwald Concentration Camp. The story describes life inside the prisons - the boredom, brutality and the longing for escape - and the eventual freedom at the end of the war. | 990 | |
