Immortalised in film and literature, the 15th century castle of Colditz is remembered not for medieval battles but for its use as a prisoner of war camp. This book examines the history of the castle, the methods used to keep prisoners inside and the ingenious techniques by which they attempted to escape. Slim 4to.
