Of the 10,000 Allied paratroopers who dropped into Holland in 1944, only 2,000 returned. Trapped in enemy territory, 250 of the toughest--the Evaders--survived for months aided by the Dutch Resistance and their own courage. Here is former Evader Leo Heaps' eyewitness account.

I have had to be frank in this book about what I see in the churches, painful though it may be for them and for me, for I am convinced that religious life today constitutes a massive evasion of God. My purpose in writing this is twofold: to help us understand why our churches are in such a sorry state spiritually and to call the churches and their leaders to honesty and change. - Preface.

An authority on pilot evasion, escape, and survival recounts extraordinary adventures that took place in Holland, Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, Albania, and Greece during World War II.
