Book Reviews of The Great Escape
Book Review: Historical Fact That Reads Like Fiction.
Summary: 5 Stars
As one who is interested in history and in particular, WW2 history, I was very impressed with this work. This popular nonfiction literature outlines the resourcefulness, ingenuity, desperation and courage of the POWs who desperately desired to gain their own freedom to help the allied war effort; while, conversely showing the darker side of humanity through the cold blooded murders of many of these same men by the Nazis that eventually caught them. The author tells an important historical story with humor and insight. This book shows that you really can accomplish anything that you set your mind to. A great read for all ages.
