There's gift I've ever received has to be a bike when I was younger, a pedal bike.

It was a sort of slick little road bike and I remember it was all like it was so it was all wrapped up

but it was so obvious what it was obviously because nothing shaped like a bike and had a little ribbon on it

and I was so guest. For that was a life changer and I'm still sort of big on cycling around my area now

so for that one change me a little.

Joy in every sip with red carp now back at Starbucks.

Hello and thank you for listening to the history of World War II podcast.

Episode 368 interview with Damien Lewis about his book Churchill's Great Escapes. Seven incredible escapes made by World War II heroes.

Mr. Lewis the author of numerous World War II books including The Nazi Hunters and the SAS Band of Brothers

comes on the show to share amazing escapes by allied POWs that defied the odds and brought hope to their respective countries.

The following tales will demonstrate the courage of humans and what can be done with a can do attitude.

Mr. Lewis thanks for coming back on the show.

Hey it's my pleasure good to be back.

Absolutely so you and I were talking a couple of minutes before we started recording and we were saying that I should have you on the show once a year until we cover all your books.

But since that would take too many years maybe we should condense that a little bit.

Yeah I think we got a set of sights a little less higher than that I was.

We'll be here until the end of eternity exactly but I'm very jealous because I was just looking through your list of books of all the things that you've covered.

And I just wanted to let you know that the Nazi Hunters the one I recently ran across on Amazon and your web website that is my that's on my list for this summer reading when I go to the beach so I'm looking forward to that.
