(Subject: Other Topics - Diverse Subjects
) On 6 April 1943, Ian Reid, an officer in the Black Watch, was wounded and captured in Tunisia and sent off to an Italian prisoner-of-war camp. Five months later, when the Germans took over the camp, he escaped and began a life-or-death game of hide and seek living in barns, sleeping in ditches and scavenging for food. He was recaptured - though heroically he was to escape from the Germans a total of five times. Nearly sixty years later, Howard Reid followed in his father's footsteps and made the same journey across Italy. Starting near Modena, he travelled to Florence and through Chianti, Siena and Orvieto to Rome and beyond, painting an intimate portrait of his extraordinary father.

Description:
(Subject: Aviation - General) A Titanic Blow Against Enemy Industry. These were the headlines when Lancasters from 617 Squadron, RAF Bomber Command, demolished two enormous German dams during the night of 16/17 May 1943, using Barnes Walliss revolutionary 'bouncing bombs'. Since then, the operation has been dismissed as a 'publicity stunt which had a 'negligible effect on the German war effort'. This is an authoritative account of the raid, conceived out of necessity, prepared for against the tightest of deadlines and carried out in the face of unimaginable danger.
