Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Twisted Florin is a compelling wartime adventure story that follows one of World War II's forgotten heroes--Squadron Leader Arnold John Mott. As told by his niece, Stella Clare Marsh, his story offers a very personal and evocative tale of one man's extraordinary wartime experiences.

Mott was a bomber pilot who completed nineteen missions before being shot down and captured, but following the Italian armistice he escaped into the Alps through Yugoslavia to rejoin service, this time with the No. 1 Special Force. The Twisted Florin details Mott's incredible wartime bravery and offers fresh perspectives on the devastating personal effect of the war on servicemen and civilians.
