n March 1943 a team of expatriate Norwegian commandos sailed from the most northerly part of Britain for Nazi-occupied Norway. Their mission was to organise and support the Norwegian resistance. They were betrayed, and only one man survived the ambush by the Nazis. Crippled by frostbite, snow-blind and hunted by the Nazis, Jan Baalstrud managed to find a tiny arctic village. There - delirious, near death - he found villagers willing to risk their own lives to save him. David Howarth narrates his incredible escape in this gripping tale of courage and the resilience of the human spirit.
A unit of Norwegian commandos entered Norway in 1943 to support the resistance against the Germans. They were betrayed and only JanBaalsrud survived. His astonishing survival tale is told by spymaster David Howarth in this illustrated volume.

Paperback. Etat : Good. A book that I absolutely could not put down . . . and one that I will never forget. --Stephen E. AmbroseOne of the great escape stories of our time. --Chicago Sun-Times We Die Alone is a spine chiller. It may well become a legend. --Boston Post Here is one of the most exciting escape narratives to emerge from the challenges and miseries of World War I. In March 1943, a team of expatriate Norwegian commandos sailed from northern England for Nazi-occupied arctic Norway to organize and supply the Norwegian resistance. But they were betrayed, and the Nazis ambushed them. Only one man survived--Jan Baalsrud. This is the incredible and gripping story of his escape. Frostbitten, blinded by the snow, and pursued by the Nazis, Jan dragged himself forward until he reached a small arctic village. He was near death, delirious, and a virtual cripple. But the villagers, at mortal risk to themselves, were determined to save him, and--through impossible feats--they did. We Die Alone is an astonishing true story of heroism and resilience. Like Slavomir Rawicz's classic The Long Walk, and the story of Sir Ernest Shackleton and the crew of the Endurance, it is also an unforgettable portrait of the determination of the human spirit.
