Publisher's Summary
It begins with an ambushed commando raid that leaves all but one of the expatriate resistance fighters dead or captured. Though wounded, Jan Baalsrud, the sole survivor, takes off on a courageous, incredible trek into the wilds of the Lyngen Alps, while the Nazis pursue him relentlessly. He suffers frostbite, snowblindness, and a terrible fall in an avalanche. At last, delirious and near death, he chances on to a cabin, where the first in a series of remarkably brave and clever men and women come to his aid. These "ordinary heroes" will eventually get the crippled Baalsrud to safety and freedom, and the amazing story of how they do it will fill listeners with wonder at the capability of the human spirit.
Critic Reviews
"Almost unbelievable. We Die Alone is a spine chiller. It may well become a legend." ( Boston Post)
"One of the most remarkable survival stories ever written." ( Library Journal)

Amazing survival
From Australia one cannot imagine how living in such cold climates can seem possible, naive as we may be. Let alone at a time of occupation by an invading army. Under great risk to the Norwegian people assisted at the fear of reprisal and death.
Gripping story.

Unbelievable Endurance
The story is of amazing endurance in the face of ever impending doom. What a guy.
Unfortunately the narration was a bit mind numbing and monotonous.
