In 1940, Private Raymond Bailey, a 21-year-old Vauxhall motors apprentice, was captured in northern France, becoming a Nazi prisoner of war. But he wouldn't remain one for long...

The Longest Walk Home is the incredible account of his daring 2,000 mile escape across Europe and over the Pyrenees, to the safety of British Gibraltar, and home in time for Christmas. Along the way Ray has nerve-shredding encounters with German soldiers and the Spanish Civil Guard. Often he is exhausted and starving. All that keeps him going is his youthful energy, unfailing optimism, and the kindness of strangers who risk their own safety to help him.

Ray's escape is remarkable, but so too is his memoir. It was written within a year or two of the events it describes, when Ray was just 22, and despite Ray's obvious writing talent it was lost for decades until it was discovered at auction in an unmarked box of WWII memorabilia by David Wilkins. Ray's is a true unheard voice, and one of the last from this time.

Great shape
Format: Hardcover
Book is in great shape. Took a while to get here but in great shape. Could have taken off the $1.99 good will sticker. Kind of made me feel like I was ripped off.

simplemente magnífico
Format: Kindle
Siempre he creído en el efecto placebo, pero ignoraba el placebo era yo y esto cambia todo, pues el cambio viene de adentro, no se requiere un estímulo externo. El Dr Dispensa explica de manera científica cómo es que nosotros somos el placebo. Este tipo de validación científica será muy valiosa para los que buscan eso, yo prefiero experimentarlo y ver los resultados. En mi caso, tenía un ataque de gota horrible en mi dedo del dedo gordo del pie izquierdo y en cuestión de días ha mejorado increíblemente, sin medicamentos, solo cambiando mi estado del ser, maravilloso ! Súper recomendable el libro.
