In March 1943 a team of expatriate Norwegian commandos sailed from the Shetland Islands for Nazi-occupied Norway. Their mission was to organise and support the Norwegian resistance. They were betrayed. And only one man survived a terrifying ambush by Nazi soldiers. This is the incredible and gripping story of his escape. Crippled by frostbite and snow-blind, hunted by the Germans, Jan Baalsrud, the sole survivor, managed to find a tiny Arctic village. There, delirious and close to death, he found villagers willing to risk their lives to save him. We Die Alone is his incredible story - an incomparable epic of survival in the most hostile conditions.

I enjoyed this book as it always remindes me that im glad i never have to be put in that possision, but be wary if you have not read may military or war books before, the time that he spends in sub Zero tempature may lead you to think that it is not totaly true, but i can not say ether way if it is or isent, i wasent there, but if it is, then Jan is a very though and they certainly dont make them like they used to!! Rock on Jan Baalsrud
