Charlie Jager was a romantic who read Homer and carried a revolver, Ben Travers a teenage larrikin who played cards and rolled his own. They were mates whose friendship had been forged in the North African battlefields, and were now pitted against Hitler´s crack paratroops in the Battle of Crete. The two young Australians were among thousands of Allied troops captured after ferocious fighting that ended in Germany´s most costly ` victory ` of World War II. But Jager and Travers rebelled : breaking through the barbed wire to take their chance in the mountains. Escape took daring – but they realised the real heroes were Greek villagers who risked death to hide them from the Germans and smuggle them to the mainland. There, they joined a band of other escaped prisoners, pirated a boat and defied theodds by sailing to North Africa. Charlie Jager knew he could never repay his saviours. But, a lifetime later, he can tell the story. ; 210 x 135mm; xii, 308 pages .
