Gillies, Midge, 1962-2012
Books, Manuscripts
The conventional picture of Allied POWs in the World War II prisoner-of-war camps is either of escape attempts or terrible brutality. But what did the men really do all day? This text shows British prisoners showed the most amazing ingenuity and determination to turn their camp into a hive of every kind of activity.
