Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. On 6th April 1943, Ian Reid, an officer in the Black Watch, was captured by the Germans in Tunisia and sent off to an Italian prisoner of war camp. Five months later, as the Germans took over the camp after the Italians pulled out the war, he escaped. So began a life or death game of hide and seek in the heart of the beautiful Italian countryside, living in barns, sleeping in ditches and scavenging for food. He was recaptured twice - and escaped yet again. Now, nearly 60 years later, Howard Reid quite literally follows in his father's footsteps, making the same journey across Italy - though in a rather more relaxed fashion. Starting near Modena, he travels to Florence and through Chianti, Siena and Orvieto to Rome and beyond, painting an intimate portrait of his extraordinary father and getting closer to the truth of his amazing escapades (which were the subject of a bestselling book in the 1950s). Along the way, as we take in the real, modern Italy, Howard muses on father-son relationships, and the deep but invisible scars which two World Wars have left on each of our personal histories. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
