Heroes of Lamsdorf

Compiled by Ken Scott

What was it like being an Allied POW in World War II? What was it like being captured and transported to a brutal environment controlled by a Nazi regime, hell-bent on world domination?

In this remarkable book, the families of the prisoners from one of the biggest POW camps in Europe, give an insight into the harsh conditions in Lamsdorf and in the forced labour work camps beyond.

The stories are unique, first-hand accounts from fathers, grandfathers and uncles who are no longer with us.

A labour of love and respect from family members determined to keep their loved ones memories alive.
