One of Paul Brickhill's classics, along with Dam Busters and Reach for the Sky, all around half a century old now, but still worth reading.
(A bit cheeky putting Steve McQueen on the cover of Great Escape :roll: but it will be educational for anyone buying the book and expecting to read about Hilts, the US "Cooler King"...)
