The story is really engaging from start to finish. After reading I found there were too many hard to believe incidents of the ordeal that make the tale a bit beyond belief. Others question that perhaps the story is a fabrication. I agree--unfortunately.

I first read this 5 years ago and have never forgotten the thrill of reading it. I was able to put it down a couple of times, while i slept or had a meal, but that was hard to do. It is compelling. I lost it in my move and just had to have it in my library again, hence, this purchase. READ IT!

I loved the book. I bought another one, because I loaned my first one out and couldn't remember who had it. It is an excellent book.

This book is one of those true life sagas that is almost hard to believe. It is full ouf courage regardless, as the author and several others escape a prison camp in Siberia in the winter and walk all the way to India over the next many months, including an incredible passage thru the Gobi desert and over the Himalayas. Well worth reading if you like true adventure rather than fantasy adventure!
Amazing story! One of the best reads ever.
