About the book

Paul Brickhill's The Great Escape tells the story of the mass breakout from the German prisoner-of-war camp Stalag Luft III during the Second World War. Allied prisoners secretly dug tunnels, forged documents and created civilian disguises in preparation for the escape. The book combines meticulous planning, courage and tragedy in one of the most famous escape stories of the war.
