This gripping memoir tells the story of Joseph Lee, an American soldier captured by the Germans during World War I and held in a series of prison camps throughout Germany. Through his eyes, we see the hardships of life as a prisoner of war, including hunger, disease, and forced labor. Yet even in the face of extreme adversity, Lee maintains his courage and dignity, offering a powerful testimony of the human spirit. With its vivid illustrations and poignant narrative, A Captive at Carlsruhe is a moving tribute to the sacrifices of those who have served their country in times of war.
