description: "Sławomir Rawicz was a Polish Army lieutenant who was imprisoned by the NKVD after the Soviet invasion of Poland. In a ghost-written book called The Long Walk, he claimed that in 1941 he and six others had escaped from a Siberian Gulag camp and begun a long journey south on foot, supposedly travelling through the Gobi Desert, Tibet, and the Himalayas before finally reaching India in the winter of 1942."
