Eric Williams / The Tunnel (Older Edition Small Paperback)

Product Description

This book is a prequel to Eric Williams' *The Wooden Horse*. It describes his last mission, his being shot down, his capture, and his experience at his first prison camp, Oflag XXIB. Yes, there is a tunnel involved. And yes, like *The Wooden Horse*, *The Tunnel* is written as a novel. > This book traces Peter Howard, who was to become one of *The Wooden Horse* escapers, from his being shot down, through his capture, interrogation and first two POW camps. It gets into the mind of a man determined to escape his captors. It shows that for all the many schemes dreamed up, very few ever got started and of those, only a tiny handful ever came to fruition--and of those, a ‘home run’ was as rare as a lottery win. > But none of this could suppress the determination, ingenuity and courage of those who were driven to try. > This is a thrilling opportunity to read what is virtually ‘lost’ masterpiece of the Prisoner of War escaping genre.
