Saving Uncle Paddy

In 1942 an improbable hero and future Uncle set out to rescue the very posh Governor of Burma with an Austin 7, an Irish passport, and Marco Polo's map. Aided only by a feisty French Resistance fighter, a young professor whom Hitler once babysat, and India's first woman lawyer, he accomplished the dangerous journey against incalculable odds. Crossing steppes, mountains and jungles as they outwitted hoodlums and hostiles of every kind, the companions reached their goal in a confrontation that might turn the tide of History.
