"Endlessly fascinating. Cram's story sizzles with adventure." --Giles Milton, author, Churchill's Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, "As anti-Judaism and Holocaust denial resurges through the world, it's more vital than ever to present Holocaust survivors, and that is what D.Z. Stone does in this unique tale of a couple who met while in ghetto but then reunited and married and had a long and amazing life together. I found myself admiring and being in awe of Willi and Kati Salcer, especially their determination to thrive in the world that dared to obliterate their families. In a way they remind me of my own grandparents, Gd rest their souls who have died weeks within of each other. The tale is non fiction, but is presented in a very engaging manner, with both sides giving thoughts and opinions about one another, a documentary being narrated by two people. I feel privileged to have read and gotten to know Willi and Kati Salcer."--Svetlana, Svetlana's Reads and Views, "The story of Alastair Cram is a remarkable one, perhaps richer for having remained untold for so long . . . a book that ranks among the best escape literature." -- Times, Endlessly fascinating. Cram's story sizzles with adventure and the author plays it for all it is worth. I found myself rooting for his hero at every scrape and turn.

Synopsis
A genuinely new World War II story, this is a riveting account of the wartime exploits of Alastair Cram. Cram was taken prisoner in North Africa in November 1941, which began a long odyssey through 12 different POW camps, three Gestapo prisons and one asylum. He fled his captors no fewer than 21 times, including his final successful escape from a POW column in April 1945. Perhaps the most dramatic of his attempts was from Gavi, the "Italian Colditz." Gavi was a maximum-security prison near Genoa for the pericolosi, the "most dangerous" inmates because of their perpetual hunger to escape. It was here that Alastair met David Stirling, the legendary founder of the SAS, and cooked up the plan for what would become the "Cistern Tunnel" escape, one of the most audacious but hitherto little-known mass escape attempts of the entire war., A genuinely new Second World War story, The 21 Escapes of Lt Alastair Cram is a riveting account of the wartime exploits of Alastair Cram, brilliantly told by the American author, David Guss. Cram was taken prisoner in North Africa in November 1941, which began a long odyssey through ten different POW camps and three Gestapo prisons. He became a serial escapee - fleeing his captors no fewer than twenty-one times, including his final, and finally successful, escape from a POW column in April 1945. Perhaps the most dramatic of his attempts was from Gavi, the 'Italian Colditz'. Gavi was a maximum-security prison near Genoa for the pericolosi, the 'most dangerous' inmates because of their perpetual hunger to escape. It was here that Alastair met David Stirling, the legendary founder of the SAS, and cooked up the plan for what would become the 'Cistern Tunnel' escape, one of the most audacious but hitherto little-known mass escape attempts of the entire war. A story of courage in the face of extraordinary odds, it is a testament to one man's dogged determination never to give up., The extraordinary - and never before told - story of Alastair Cram, the British soldier who escaped from prisoner-of-war camps not once but more than twenty times.

    Book exactly as specified, rapid international delivery (USA to UK), and a reasonable price for an out-of-print book. I was also very pleased and reassured by the quality of packaging for the book. It arrived in a cardboard box, and inside, it had brown paper to pad out the box, plus brown paper around the book to further protect it. This meant the book survived international shipping in great condition. On that basis, I highly recommend this seller.

    The book arrived right on time. The packaging was excellent. The package contained two books and both were perfectly wrapped to keep them both clean and flat. The book was as described. Clean and crisp. The Price was perfect as well. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I would definitely use this seller again.

    Very happy with my purchase! The book was new as described and was safely shipped in a protective bubble mailer, it arrived pristine condition. It's important to me that any books I order arrive undamaged, so this was such a relief. I will definitely remember this seller if I want any more books in the future.
