Deliverance at Diepholz: A POW's Story

It has been said that every soldier fights a different war. Here is a totally unique picture of World War II by an American private, who spent the latter part of the conflict as a prisoner of the Germans. Semi-autobiographical, this book, rich in the contradiction of war, relates the author’s sometimes bitter, sometimes heartwarming personal experience. Deliverance at Diepholz is a carefully written, completely factual account of diverse cultures intermingling against a colorful background of POW life on a remote Pomeranian farm. It stresses the triumph of basic human values in a sort of “man’s humanity to man” account that is gratifying to read.
