“James
is
the
sort
of
person
they
write
legends
about.
A
participant
in
the
mass
escape
that
was
the
basis
for
the
movie
The
Great
Escape.”
—AudioFileFrom
the
moment
he
was
shot
down
to
the
final
whistle,
Jimmy
James’
one
aim
as
a
POW
of
the
Germans
was
to
escape.
Moonless
Night
describes
his
experiences
and
those
of
his
fellow
prisoners
in
the
most
gripping
and
thrilling
manner.
The
author
made
more
than
twelve
escape
attempts
including
his
participation
in
The
Great
Escape,
where
fifty
of
the
seventy-six
escapees
were
executed
in
cold
blood
on
Hitler’s
orders.On
re-capture,
James
was
sent
to
the
infamous
Sachsenhausen
Concentration
Camp
where,
undeterred,
he
tunneled
out.
That
was
not
the
end
of
his
remarkable
story.Moonless
Night
has
strong
claim
to
be
the
finest
escape
story
of
the
Second
World
War.“An
amazing
story.”
