Description: "Marmaduke Hussey was fortunate to be brought down from three yards by the worst shot in the German army. At such a short distance anybody else would have killed him. Instead, Dukie, as he is universally known, was taken captive, had his right leg amputated and was left for dead in a prisoner-of-war camp. Once home it took him five years to get off the critical list. For the first time Dukie recounts these experiences and their effect upon his life." "As Dukie says himself, 'Chance governs all.'"--BOOK JACKET.
