Book excerpt: A captivating tale - and extremely well written' - Le Figaro litteraire'A staggering testimony' - Livres HebdoNerve-wrecking' - Le Monde'A spectacular story' - L'Obs'An utterly chilling tale' - France InterYoann Barbereau was a promising official at the head of the Alliance Fran aise in Irkutsk, in Siberia, when he was imprisoned on charges of a crime he had not committed. The FSB, heir to the KGB, created a set of false evidence to incriminate him and confine him to 15 years in a Siberian prison camp. After months of abuse and deception by the authorities, he decided to end the injustice on his own account: he would escape from Russia.Escape from Siberia is the gripping tale of a flight from the depths of an icy continent, telling the epic story of how an innocent man escaped from the clutches of injustice. In a cinematic and action-packed account, Barbereau recounts his mind-boggling trek across a forest border guarded by ferocious dogs and gunmen to cross the border and reach Europe. This is an enthralling - and terrifying - account of a rogue state in action and how one man escaped the nightmare.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1955, this must be one of the most dramatic adventures of our time. Clemens Forell, a German soldier, was sentenced to 25 years of forced labour in a Siberian lead mine after the Second World War. Rebelling against the brutality of the camp, Forell staged a daring escape, enduring an 8000-mile journey across the trackless wastes of Siberia, in some of the most treacherous and inhospitable conditions on earth. Bauer's writing brilliantly evokes Forell's desperation in the prison camp, and his struggle for survival and terror of recapture as he makes his way towards the Persian frontier and freedom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Condemned as a Nihilist: A Story of Escape From Siberia There are few difficulties that cannot be surmounted by patience, resolution, and pluck, and great as are the obstacles that nature and the Russian government Oppose to an escape from the prisons of Siberia, such evasions have occasion ally been successfully carried out, and that under far less advantageous circumstances than those under which the hero of this story undertook the venture. For the account of life in the convict establishments in Siberia I am indebted to the very valuable books by my friend the Rev. Dr. Lans dell, who has made himself thoroughly acquainted with Siberia, traversing the country from end to end and visiting all the principal prisons. He conversed not only with officials, but with many of the prisoners and convicts, and with Russian and foreign residents in the country, and his testimony as to the management of the prisons and the condition of the convicts is confirmed by other independent writers personally cognizant of the facts, and like him able to converse fluently in the language, and writing from inti mate knowledge Oi the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1956, The Long Walk has been, for many, the symbol of an immense love of freedom and has become one of the greatest true-life adventure stories of all time. The harrowing story about a group of POWs who escaped a labor camp in Siberia and walked to freedom in India during WWII deeply affected thousands of its readers, and Linda Willis was one of those moved by the story. But she had questions about its authenticity: Was it all true? What happened after their arrival in India? Were there others involved in the story? Who was Mr. Smith? Though she was not a trained researcher, Willis felt compelled to look at some of the most powerful aspects of the story and to try to dig to the core of the truth behind The Long Walk. Willis’s investigation took her down unforeseen byways with many hours spent unraveling facts, truths, half-truths, rumors, and the like. She waded through archives, wrote and spoke to hundreds of people, and continued to seek out and verify the details of the greatest adventure narrative ever written. The path of Willis’s research will be a model for anyone attempting a similar search and who has ever thought about the story behind a book. No one who reads Looking for Mr. Smith will ever think of The Long Walk in the same way.
