A history of deserters and desertion which details those men and women who have gone absent without leave. Among them are pugilists, poets, thieves, thugs, lovers and lunatics, princes and politicians. Covering thousands of years in time, and over forty countries, it is an anecdotal history of one of the most emotive subjects in war.
