Robert P. Watson provides the definitive account of the Confederacy’s infamous Libby Prison, site of the Civil War’s largest prison break. Libby Prison housed Union officers, high-profile foes of the Confederacy, and political prisoners. Watson captures the wretched conditions, cruel guards, and the story of the daring prison break, called “the most remarkable in American history.”
Dying for Another Day
"On January 1, 1943, First Lieutenant Pete Edris was transferred to the 306th Bomb Group, 369th Bomb Squad, and served under Col. Armstrong (who was portrayed by Gregory Peck in the movie, 'Twelve O'clock High'). This is Pete's story. It's a story of a twenty-two year old boy whose B-17 bomber was blown out of the sky over Rennes, France, on March 8, 1943. It's a story about the people who befriended him. And it's a testimonial to his irrepressible desire to survive one of Nazi Germany's most notorious prison camps, Stalag Luft III, from where 'The Great Escape' was based. It's a story about living to see another day...and reuniting with Doris Cooke, his soul mate...and the love of his life. It's a truly remarkable story about a rare World War II statistic: An infinitesimal twenty-three American soldiers were declared dead in World War II...and lived to tell about it. Pete Edris was one of those soldiers. And this is his unforgettable story." --Raymond Reid, Introduction, page v.

Guest houses have become an exceptionally popular and attractive type of accommodation for tourists and travelers in recent decades. As the setting often influences the architecture, interior design, and decoration of a guest house, visitors have the opportunity to more closely experience local customs and culture and engage with the surrounding environment. Another Escape: Designing the Modern Guest House II presents a collection of guest houses in China, North America, Europe and Northern Africa that are in harmony with their setting. These outstanding projects are distinct for their architecture and interior spaces, and each has a character that is greatly influenced by history, culture, and regional context. This book provides guidance on guest house design and management, and with enticing color photographs, technical drawings, and freehand sketches, it is an essential source of inspiration for architects, interior designers, small business owners, and anyone looking to establish a guest house in their local region.
