Chris Palmer and Merv Browne were imprisoned for their pacifist beliefs in military defaulters' camps in the central North Island. To bring conditions in the camps to public notice, in 1944 they escaped to Wellington, where they distributed a pamphlet and tried to lobby politicians. The book tells of their audacious adventure, severe punishment and how their Christian faith sustained them.
