Publishers Description: One of the most incredible adventures of WWI: an Australian airman (Captain Thomas Walter White) captured in Iraq is force-marched across the Middle East to a POW camp in Turkey, only to escape to Russia as a stowaway on a Bolshevik smugglers ship, where he arrives in the maelstrom of the Russian revolution. The authors capture wonderfully the adventure of Whites flight and have written a fascinating account of one of Australias forgotten war heroes.
