About this ebook
This is not just the story of what was perhaps the most daring raid undertaken by the commandos during the war, but it is also the true and remarkable account of a desperate escape by Marine Sparks and Major 'Blondie' Hasler across German-occupied France. For nearly three months, while they desperately sought assistance from the suspicious French Resistance and dodged German soldiers at every turn, Sparks and Hasler found themselves avoiding capture and certain death.

Another wonderful read of escape and evade. No matter how many of these
stories that I read they still grip me from start to finish, and this one
is no exception. Always sad when they finally end.
