The stakes are higher than freedom itself--chains unshackled, steel doors opened, gunfire avoided. At stake is life itself, and the odds against winning the struggle are immense. The stories in this collection are pulse-pounding accounts of escape attempts of soldiers trapped on battlefields, outdoor adventurers facing nature's darkest hours, and POWs of all nationalities. The pain of wounds, loneliness, and defeat are captured in prose that makes these stories come alive. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLamar Underwood\u003c\/b\u003e is the former editor in chief of Sports Afield and Outdoor Life, and also the editorial director of the Outdoor Magazine Group of Harris Publications in New York City.
