Reviews / Votes
Excellent...a deeply moving Arctic saga * * The Times * * We Die Alone fills one with humble admiration for the stubborn courage of a man who refused to die under circumstances that would have killed ninety-nine men out of a hundred. * * New York Times * * A book that I absolutely could not put down...and one that I will never forget. * * Steven E. Ambrose, author of Band of Brothers * * Almost unbelievable. We Die Alone is a spine-chiller. It was well become a legend. -- Boston Post Howarth's narrative is thoroughly involving; you can almost hear the shriek of the Arctic wind, be blinded by the snow and feel the frostbite. As vividly portrayed as his personal courage is the desolating impact of war on a handful of remote Norwegian fishing settlements. -- David Stafford * * Times Literary Supplement * * One of the most extraordinary escape stories you will ever read . . . outstanding -- Andy McNab astonishing and enthralling * * The Scottish Mail on Sunday * *More details
