My German Prisons

My German Prisons is a memoir written by Horace Gray Gilliland about his experience as a prisoner of war in Germany during World War I. The book details his capture by German soldiers on November 14, 1914, and his subsequent imprisonment in various German prisons for two and a half years. Gilliland recounts the harsh conditions he faced as a prisoner, including poor food and living conditions, forced labor, and physical abuse. He also describes the friendships he formed with fellow prisoners and the ways in which they supported each other during their captivity. The book culminates in Gilliland's daring escape from a prison camp on April 8, 1917, and his eventual return to the United States. My German Prisons provides a firsthand account of the experiences of a World War I POW and sheds light on the conditions faced by prisoners during the conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
