A rare signed 1984 first edition hardback of 'Colditz: The full story' written by Major Pat Reid, one of the few British officers to successfully escape from the infamous Colditz Castle, Oflag IVc, making his daring 'home run' to neutral Switzerland. The book retains its original protective sleeve, preserving its exceptional condition and historical significance.

Inscribed by Major Reid, the message reads: "To Michael, with much appreciation for your help. From Pat, 1st Nov 1984." This personal dedication adds a special touch to an already remarkable piece of World War II history.

Reid’s detailed narrative of Colditz, combined with the personal inscription, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the Colditz story from one of its most famous escapees. ISBN-10: 0333342690
