Eric Williams, een voormalige RAF-piloot en krijgsgevangene, creëerde meeslepende verhalen, gecentreerd rond gedurfde ontsnappingen uit oorlogsgevangenschap. Zijn geschriften worden gekenmerkt door intense spanning en een nauwkeurige verkenning van de strategische vindingrijkheid en psychologische veerkracht die nodig zijn voor zulke gevaarlijke ondernemingen. Williams excelleerde in het onderdompelen van lezers in de sfeer van hoogspanning van zijn ontsnappingspogingen, waarbij elke beslissing aanzienlijk gewicht had, terwijl hij tegelijkertijd de onbedwingbare geest belichtte van degenen die extreme tegenspoed onder ogen zagen.

Eric Williams's influential and widely debated Capitalism and Slavery, first published in 1944, was based on his previously unavailable dissertation, now in book form for the first time. The significant differences between his two seminal works allow us to reconsider questions whose importance has only increased in our current charged climate.
Traces Peter Howard, who was to become one of The Wooden Horse escapers, from his being shot down, through his capture, and first two POW camps. This work gets into the mind of a man determined to escape his captors. It shows that for all the many schemes dreamt up, very few ever got started and of those a 'home run' was like a lottery win.
