"In 1941 the author and a small group of fellow prisoners escaped a Soviet labor camp. Their march out of Siberia, through China, the Gobi Desert, Tibet, and over the Himalayas to British India is a remarkable statement about a man's desire to be free." This account is so filled with despair and suffering it is almost unreadable...but I just could not put it down...until he made it. Incredible. Awesome. I found myself praying for him as I read. This is not a novel; this is for real.
