Great Escape Stories

I read this book very many years ago, as a kid and loved it. The truth is I read it cover to cover multiple times. The book is mostly a compellation of short escape stories from WWII: Downed aviators, resistance fighters etc. devising resourceful ways to escape captivity and then make it to freedom. Their plans, tools and escapes are smart, ingenious and fascinating. They travel trough occupied Europe by foot, trains, boats and even bicycles. Their adventures include jailbreaks, organized escape networks, help form brave citizens and sometimes just plain luck!The stories in the book are true and absolutely riveting. I remember being amazed at the drive, dedication and courage of these individuals in their plight for freedom and the people who help them along the way. Their accounts are truly inspirational. The book is easy to read and I definitely recommend it for younger readers. On the other hand, since I am desperately trying to replace my lost copy, I believe that older readers would enjoy it also. Now, if I could only find where my old copy escaped to...
