Book excerpt: Richard Ransom is a young man with ambition – until Hitler gets in the way... Determined to free himself from the drudgery of life in the coalmines of 1930s England, Richard seeks to become something in life and to win the hand of the woman he loves. As his dreams are about to become reality, Europe is plunged into a nightmare war that lasts longer than anyone could have imagined. ‘The Shackles of Freedom’ is the story of a man’s struggle for freedom: freedom from the traditions of his community and family environment, freedom from enslavement by Nazi Germany, and freedom from cupid’s capriciousness - until ultimately he grasps that freedom is a state of mind.
