520    Jan Baalsrud's escape from Nazi-occupied arctic Norway is 
       one of the most exciting escape narratives to emerge from 
       the challenges and miseries of World War II chronicles . 
       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 and 
       snowblind, pursued by the Nazis, he dragged himself on 
       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 endurance. Like 
       Salvomir Rawicz's, The Long Walk, it is also an 
       unforgettable portrait of the determination of the human 
       spirit
