Behind Nazi Lines: My Father's Heroic Quest to Save 149 World War II POWs

Autor Andrew Gerow Hodges, Denise George
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 aug 2016
Told by his own son, this is the riveting story of an Allied soldier who risked his life to save 149 prisoners-of-war. In 1944, hundreds of Allied soldiers were trapped in the prisoner-of-war camps off the Atlantic coast of occupied France. Red Cross volunteer Andy Hodges was tapped for what sounded like a suicide mission to bring aide to the POWs - alone and unarmed, matching his wits against the Nazi war machine. This is the true story of one man's selflessness, ingenuity and victory in the face of impossible adversity.

He is a psychiatrist in private practice and has served as assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine.
