Having read numerous books by POW's who were held by the Germans at Colditz Castle during WWII, it was fascinating to read the story from the perspective of a German commander at the castle. Eggers' description of himself as a near saint does not always match the prisoners' memories of him, but in most important details, his story coincides with other published Colditz accounts. It is clear that even though his job was to prevent or stop escapes, he was awed and impressed by the level of ingenuity behind many of the escapes.
