Join bestselling espionage historian Ben Macintyre for a talk about the Second World War's most notorious prison, the subject of his latest book Colditz.
The inside story of Colditz is a tale of the indomitable human spirit, but also one of snobbery, class conflict, homosexuality, bullying, espionage, boredom, insanity and farce. Macintyre reveals a remarkable cast of characters of multiple nationalities, with captors and prisoners living for years cheek-by-jowl in a thrilling game of cat and mouse.
'Like watching a black-and-white photograph being colourised . . . Macintyre has thrown fresh light on Colditz and aligned the scratches left on its walls into another compelling narrative' - Spectator
