A Thousand Miles to Freedom: A World War II Escape Memoir

Martin Kari

Frozen wastelands. Silent nights. A man's heartbeat against the howl of the wind.

In the depths of Siberia, Michael endures unspeakable hardship after being torn from his family and forced into a labor camp. Amid hunger and despair, he clings to the memory of a life worth returning to.

When fate offers a narrow chance of escape, Michael takes it - knowing that beyond every horizon lies another trial. His trek across the frozen frontier becomes more than a flight for survival; it is a test of faith, love, and what it means to be truly free.

A Thousand Miles to Freedom is a haunting and inspiring tale about one man's journey through darkness - and the light that never died within him.
