Notes

“In July 1942, with a notebook and pencil he bought from a German guard, Dudley Muff started a very special diary. Dudley was 42 and a prisoner of war in Stalag XV!!!B in Germany when he wrote this diary for his niece, Alison, who was four and living in Timaru... Miraculously, the diary survived the war and now serves as a poignant account of one New Zealand soldier’s determination to survive at all costs”--Back cover
