In THE COLDITZ STORY, Pat Reid told the story of the escape academy
that sprang up inside the most impregnable German POW camp of the
Second World War, ending appropriately with his own incredible escape
from Colditz.
But Reid's own break-out was by no means the last. In this
enthralling sequel, he follows the fortunes of the escape academy right
up until the arrival of the allied forces in April 1945. These tales of
fantastic bravery and stunning ingenuity are every bit as mesmerising as
the original.
A true classic, LATTER DAYS AT COLDITZ is the bestselling conclusion
to the story of the infamous German P.O.W. camp.
