 Paperback in excellent condition. Published 2009. 324 pages.

A Classic tale of escape and survival in the Namib Desert during the Second World War. Threatened with interment for the duration of the Second World war, two young German geologists (Henno Martin - the author of this book- and Hermann Korn) sought refuge in the Namib Desert and lived a Robinson Crusoe existence for two and a half years. How they mastered their situation, what they did, thought and observed are the subject of this book. "The thought that this wild, barren landscape was to be our home for perhaps quite a long time filled me with misgivings and yet at the same time with a feeling of elation.". Hermann observed soberly: "They won't find us so easily here".
