| | | Annotation:
WE DIE ALONE, first published in 1955, is about a man named Jan Baalsrud who, with three others, was sent by the Norwegian resistance on a sabotage mission to bleak and icy northern Norway, where in an attack by the Germans (triggered by an informer) he was the only survivor. The grisly and terrifying details of his trek through the chilly landscape--which included the amputation of his toes with a pocket knife--provide a gripping story and a vivid argument against the horrors of war.

"It is certainly a harrowing tale, gripping told by David Howarth....Howarth's narrative is thoroughly involving; you can almost hear the shriek of the Arctic wine, be blinded by the snow and feel the frostbite." - David Stafford 07/19/2002 |
