Zuckoff, Mitchell.

In this thrilling, true-life adventure, Mitchell Zuckoff offers a spellbinding account of a November 1942 B-17 search-and-rescue mission -- the harrowing crashes and the fate of the survivors and their would-be saviors at the Greenland Ice Cap. The author also recounts the efforts of the Coast Guard and North South Polar Inc. in 2012 to recover the remains of its crew.
