The Untold Story of the Men Behind America’s Mass Prison Escape

In February 1864, over 100 Union officers made a daring escape from the infamous Libby Prison in Richmond, Virginia. Enduring horrific conditions, they spent 17 nights digging a secret tunnel using crude tools, risking discovery and execution. Led by Colonel Thomas E. Rose, the prisoners emerged through the tunnel into the freezing night and carefully navigated Richmond’s streets to avoid detection. This audacious plan, marked by ingenuity and resilience, became one of the most legendary prison escapes in American history.
