Default good book about prisoners of war

There was a camp in Phoenix- some of the German POWs heard that they were
not too far from the Salt River, so they put together some kind of raft and
got through the wire. Imagine their disappointment at reaching the
rock-strewn ditch that passes for a river in Arizona. Incidentally, they got
caught.
