Eric Williams, ex pilota della RAF e prigioniero di guerra, ha creato narrazioni avvincenti incentrate su audaci fughe dalla prigionia bellica. I suoi scritti sono caratterizzati da un'intensa suspense e da un'accurata esplorazione dell'ingegno strategico e della resilienza psicologica necessari per tali pericolosi tentativi. Williams eccelleva nell'immergere i lettori nell'atmosfera ad alto rischio delle sue fughe, dove ogni decisione aveva un peso significativo, illuminando al contempo lo spirito indomito di coloro che affrontavano avversità estreme.
Eric Williams's influential and widely debated Capitalism and Slavery, first published in 1944, was based on his previously unavailable dissertation, now in book form for the first time. The significant differences between his two seminal works allow us to reconsider questions whose importance has only increased in our current charged climate.
Traces Peter Howard, who was to become one of The Wooden Horse escapers, from
his being shot down, through his capture, and first two POW camps. This work
gets into the mind of a man determined to escape his captors. It shows that
for all the many schemes dreamt up, very few ever got started and of those a
'home run' was like a lottery win.
