"Another Man's Shoes" is a gripping first-hand account of a
Norwegian scientist's escape from German custody during the Second
World War after his arrest for spying. Written just after the war,
Sven Somme vividly describes his 200-mile trek across the
mountains, pursued by German soldiers, in a bid to reach Sweden and
freedom in 1944. Sixty years later, his daughter Ellie set out on
foot with her sister to retrace their father's flight from
Nazi-occupied Norway, meeting some of the people who helped him
along the way. She recounts the emotional moment when a pair of her
father's shoes, exchanged for mountain boots, were returned to her
by one family who sheltered him along the way and pays special
tribute to her uncle Iacob who was also arrested and later
executed.
