Samenvatting
The story of Colditz has been told often but this book chronicles the development of the Colditz myth and puts what happened inside the castle in the context of British and Commonwealth POW life in Germany as a whole. Being a captive of the Third Reich was more complicated and tougher than the popular myth would suggest. Both physical and mental demands of survival far outweighed escaping activity in order of importance in most camps. For the first time McKenzie seeks, for the first time, to place Colditz - both the camp and the legend - in a wider historical context.
