About this item
#1 New York Times Bestseller
“No one will come away unmoved by the
book, and no one will be able to put it down…. There is no way of reading Alive
without a heightened sense of one’s own life and its value.” — New

Sixteen Men, Seventy-Two Days, and
Insurmountable Odds—the Classic Adventure of Survival in the Andes
On October 12, 1972,
an Uruguayan Air Force plane carrying a team of rugby players crashed in the
remote snowy peaks of the Andes. Ten weeks later, only sixteen of the
forty-five passengers were found alive. This is the story of those ten weeks
spent in the shelter of the plane's fuselage without food and with scarcely any
hope of a rescue. The survivors protected and helped one another, and came to
the difficult conclusion that to live meant doing the unimaginable. Confronting
nature at its most furious, two brave young men risked their lives to hike
through the mountains looking for help. A tale
of astonishing bravery and adventure, Alive is much more than a survival
story, it is a breathtaking saga of human courage
The P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights
into the book, including interviews, recommended reading, and more.
