Survivor of the Long March by Charles Waite, ISBN 9780752465197

> Biography Books > Military / Transport Books Author: Charles Waite Nothing prepares a man for war, and private Charles Waite, of the Queen's Royal Regiment, was ill-prepared when his convoy took a wrong turn near Abbeville and met 400 German solidiers and half a dozen tanks. He lost his freedom that day in May 1940 and didn't regain it until April 1945 when he was rescued by Americans near berlin, having walked 1,600 kms from East Prussia. Silent for seventy years, Charles writes about his five lost years: the terrible things he saw and suffered. His story is also about friendship, of physical and mental resilience and of compassion for everyone who suffered. Part of that story includes the terrible Long March, or Black March, when 80,000 British POW's were forced to trek through the vicous winter westwards across Poland, Czechoslovakia and germany as the Soviets approached. Thousands died. There are simply no memoirs of that terrible trek- except this one. RRP: $32.95 Availability: Available at our supplier, usually ships in 10 to 14 days.
