Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Walk Home

Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Walk Home

Nando Parrado's own account of the 1972 Andes crash — the companion to Piers Paul Read's Alive, told by one of the survivors who walked out. More introspective than Read's version, and haunted by what it took to survive.
