Moonless Night

Any prisoner-of-war deep inside the Nazi Third Reich who attempted to escape deserved the highest praise for courage and determination. Remarkably, B.A "Jimmy" James took part in more than twelve attempts (including the Great Escape). Moonless Night describes, in the most graphic and gripping terms, James' experiences and emotions, both in captivity and on-the-run, as well as the successes of his fellow POWs. It is an inspiring, exciting and utterly compelling account.
