Prisoners of the Castle: An Epic Story of Survival and Escape from Colditz, the Nazis' Fortress Prison by Ben Macintyre, Ben Macintyre

This was just great -- detailed, nuanced storytelling that picks apart a beloved historical episode (jolly boys together really show those nazis what for!) and lays out the fact and the fiction that exist within that episode side by side. I highly recommend to pretty much anyone, but especially the WWII dads(TM) out there.
