Last year I talked to Mark Felton about the escape attempts of British VIP prisoners, held by the Italians. That was episode 49 Castle of Eagles, the book is possibly my favourite read of last year.

Well Mark is back, with another cracking story he\\u2019s managed to turn up in the archives, that of Operation Cowboy; the book is Ghost Riders.

It recounts the activities of an American unit which raced into Czechoslovakia to accept the surrender of a group of Germans, in doing so they manage to rescue a number of Allied POW\\u2019s, with the help of German POW\\u2019s they fight off a concerted attack by a SS Unit and then evacuate the mares of the famous Viennese, \\u2018spanish riding school\\u2019.
