Reseña: A classic in the literature of survival. --Newsweek On October 12 1972 a Uruguayan Air Force plane carrying a team of rugby players crashed in the remote snow-peaked Andes Mountains. Ten weeks later only 16 of the 45 passengers were found alive. This is the story of those ten weeks spent in the shelter of the planes fuselage without food and scarcely any hope of a rescue. They survived by protecting and helping one another and coming 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--and ultimately found it.
