book review miracle in the andes

Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Trek Home
I found Miracle in the andes in the library when I was browsing the shelves, so after consideration, reading of the reviews and looking it over; I brought it home and spent a quiet Sunday night reading it. ( all of it)

Miracle in the Andes by Nando Parrado;  a true story
Nando and his freinds; a team of rugby and a few other passengers like his mom and his sister Susy where on a plane home, ( they lived in south America) and they crashed in the andes. the pilot, his mother and sister and a few other of his friends where killed. but he survived with a few other of his friends. Its cold, they run out of food and they heard on the radio the search for them has ended; given up. Nando with a cracked scull was determined to get help if it wasn't going to come. 

and thats where I will leave you, you have to read the rest!
