About This Item
(Subject: World War II - Mediterranean/Balkans) Originally published in 1955, this translation by Patrick Leigh Fermor, tells the story of the Resistance in Crete, from the German invasion to the liberation by one of its most active participants. Psychoundakis was an intermediary between the various groups of British on the island despite great personal danger. This is the story of the heroic deeds of the author and his part in the resistance. The 'runners' were an elite band of Cretans who carried messages, smuggled arms and led Allied soldiers through the occupied land escaping detection by the Germans.
