Description:The locals call it Hush
Hush Hall. The British Army calls it No. 1 POW Camp (Officers)
Grizedale Hall. British Intelligence call it their Cage of Eagles. It is
the biggest concentration of German prisoner-of-war talent in wartime
England. Gathered together are airmen, navigators, radio operators, and
U-boatmen. Over 100 skilled and determined men with one thought
uppermost in their mind -- escape.
A Cage of Eagles is a strange story that casts the British in the unfamiliar roles of guard and hunter.
