This volume has more intriguing and exciting stories to tell since the POW's had reason to try and escape where as the previous internees describe in Volume One were men who had fled Nazi terror only to be interned because they came from Germany or Austria. There were two escapes and a notorious riot but because the camp was in the middle of forest in an area the prisoners would have no knowledge of, there success rate was zero. Jones collected hundred's of interviews, letters and Government documents and it appears it all went into the book. A better editor would have made a more readable book, but at least all his work is available to any else who wishes to pursue this topic.
Based on the letters he received after Volume One was published, his efforts were a great success. He includes some of these letters and interviews in the second volume.
To give the reader a clearer picture of the POW situation in Canada during the War, Jones includes information and stories about other POW camps in Canada. He presents information on escapes and deaths in these camps. For more information about POW camps in Canada, you should consult John Melady's Escape From Canada.… (más)
