Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Road to en-Dor' is a gripping first-hand account of one of the most ingenious escapes of World War I. Captured during the siege of Kut-el-Amara, Lieutenant E.H. Jones and his fellow officer C.W. Hill find themselves held in a prisoner-of-war camp in Yozgad, Turkey. To combat the monotony… and plan their flight, they orchestrate an elaborate psychological ruse involving spiritualism and a 'spook' communicated via a homemade ouija board.The narrative follows their meticulous process of deceiving both their fellow prisoners and, more importantly, their Ottoman captors. By convincing the camp commandant that they possess supernatural powers and knowledge of hidden treasure, the two officers embark on a high-stakes game of mental chess. What began as a diversion evolves into a daring, life-threatening scheme to secure their freedom by being certified as insane and repatriated.Combining elements of a classic military memoir with the tension of a psychological thriller, Jones's account explores the limits of human endurance and the power of intellect over physical force. 'The Road to en-Dor' remains a foundational work in the literature of wartime escapes, celebrated for its wit, suspense, and incredible depiction of psychological manipulation under extreme duress.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
