'I Escape!' tells the story of Jocelyn L. (H) Hardy OB Bees, 1911. As a prisoner of war in the First World War, he planned twelve escapes from the many prison camps that tried to contain him. Five of these attempts were successful. The book entitled 'An Escaper's Log' by Captain Grinnell-Milne, another First World War escapee wrote this about Hardy - "His reputation as a prison-breaker was, I suppose, the most widely known throughout the camps of Germany, some of his adventures were quite outstanding".
