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.
What the critics say
"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)

Not as good as the movie
Anyone who has seen the movie "The 12th Man" will know the story of Jan Baalsrud and his incredible story of survival & escape from the wretched Nazi heathens. The suffering was intolerable, almost unbelievable which makes this event historic & legendary. The narration was a little dry & too monotone for my liking but the knowing this was a true event made me stay tuned. Go see the movie!

Incredible Story of Perseverance
This is one of those stories that you can't put down, or stop listening to. It's truly incredible what some people endure and how strong the will to survive can be.
