	OUP: The Colditz Myth: MacKenzie (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Made famous in print, on film, and through television, Colditz remains a potent symbol of key virtues - including ingenuity and perseverance against apparently overwhelming odds - that form part of the popular mythology surrounding the British war effort in World War II.
		Colditz has played a major role in shaping perceptions of the POW experience in Nazi Germany, an experience in which escaping is assumed to be paramount and 'Outwitting the Hun' a universal sport.
		The story of Colditz has been told often and in a variety of forms but in this book MacKenzie chronicles the development of the Colditz myth and puts what happened inside the castle in the context of British and Commonwealth POW life in Germany as a whole.
