Book 27 (2012) Love and War in the Apennines ** by Eric Newby

This is a memoir of a soldier captured in Italy in WWII.  He escaped and was helped by Italian peasants in the mountains at very great risk to themselves.   It's also a romance.
A great story, never before told.   He makes it interesting while not sparing us the miserable details of survival.
