I don't get the time to read books very often but, having been given this one, I took it up on holiday and couldn't put it down - albeit this was a different reading experience to any that I had had before. The story made me appreciate just how much has been given by some many people like Bill Ash in order for us to enjoy the life we all have today. Not only is this account a true story but also a wonderful read, full of exciting episodes. Bill is an incredible character and I would like to thank him personally for the bravery and resolve he displayed then and which are his legacy to us all today.
