An outstanding story of the aerial war and a daring escape from captivity. For the uninitiated this book's original title, 'My Escape from Donnington Hall,' gave few clues as to the astonishing and unique nature of its contents. Its author was a young German, Gunther Plüschow. As an airman in German service at the outbreak of the First World War he was, unusually, serving in China flying a Rumpler-Taube aircraft from the East Asia naval station at Tsingtau that became besieged by joint Japanese and British forces. Plüschow's attempt to fly to safety, as it became obvious the position would fall, ended in a crash in rice paddies. He set out to walk back to Germany and the many adventures that followed would alone would qualify his story as a remarkable one. However, he was eventually captured and became a prisoner of war. Stories of wartime escape abound, but those who have been incarcerated in England have always been confounded by the difficulties of quitting an island.' In Plüschow's case this was exacerbated since in the east he had acquired a distinctive dragon tattoo; yet Plüschow he succeeded and is the only prisoner of war to escape from Britain and make the 'home run.' His remarkable narrative of his wartime adventures makes absolutely essential reading and is certainly beyond compare."-Leonaur Print version. Author - Kapitänleutnant Gunther Plüschow 1886-1931.Translator - Pauline De Chary. D. 1943Text taken, whole and complete, from the edition published in London, John Lane, 1922.Original Page Count - vii and 243 pages. Illustrations - 2 Illustrations.

Excerpt from My Escape From Donington Hall: Preceded by an Account of the Siege of Kiao-Chow in 1915 It was in the month of August of the year 1913 when I arrived in my native town, Schwerin. I had stayed several weeks in England, where I had devoted days to the visit of museums and the beautiful art collections, as well as to excursions in the vicinity of the capital. At that time I did not foresee how useful the latter would prove to me two years hence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
