Escape from Hitler's Europe

A story of what is best in human beings triumphing over what is worst.

~John Sayles

One of those rare little narratives that engage the reader from the first page to the last.... It is about the human spirit and those willing to risk their lives for a stranger.

~Library Journal

A hell of an adventure story.

~Ring Lardner Jr.

An absorbing story about how the Lincoln veteran George Watt managed to escape from Nazi-occupied Belgium.

~San Francisco Review of Books

"This is one of my favorite books about World War II, and the first I have read that is about the Comet Line and the people who helped with running it."

~Christina Smith, Armchair Interviews

"Shines a human light on the network's operatives.""This is an interesting and exciting account that provides a first person examination of the plight of an individual airman, and insights into the scope, risks, and techniques of the Belgian and French underground movements."—Col. Stetson M. Siler, USAF (Ret.)
