Continues the tale started in 'The Colditz Story' of the German POW high security camp at Colditz Castle, for officer escapers. This sequel follows the trials and tribulations of the escape committee until the eventual liberation of the castle by US troops on April 15, 1945. It gives even more anecdotal insight into the events following his escape, including the French Tunnel and the Colditz Glider, or the occasion when the entire Dutch contingent unhooked their P.O.W. railway carriage from the rest of the train unbeknownst to the German guards.
