The Greatest Escape Stories Ever Told by Darren Brown Pdf

The escape story has an irresistible lure, and the daring and creative machinations of desperate prisoners are rarely rivaled by even the most imaginative fiction writers. Gathered here are many of the most famous escapes ever made, and many that should be just as well known but are not. There are tunnel escapes that took months to compete through appalling conditions, breaks from "escape-proof" fortresses designed during the Middle Ages, and escapes from chain gangs. There are prisoner-of-war escapes that pitted men against their bitter enemies, impenetrable jungles, and almost certain death. There are escapes by hardened criminals with nothing left to lose, and there are escapes penned by some of the best novelist in history, such as Alexandre Dumas and Mark Twain, who were inspired by real-life escapers throughout history. Some of the men in these stories walked boldly out the front gate in ingenious disguises, some fought and clawed their way out, some threw themselves into impossible situations again and again until they were finally free, but all shared the daring and tenacity of men struggling for their liberty. It would be difficult to find a more compelling testament to the triumph of the human spirit over all obstacles than the stories on these pages.
