"This book tells about an incident that has been hidden for too many years. It's a fascinating adventure that stands out from all the other wartime experiences I have heard about."--Charles Martin, former "Hump" pilot "This book will be fascinating to anyone even casually interested in the politics of my country."--Losang Gyatso, Tibetan artist and actor "A well-rendered story of WWII action and adventure, one with plenty of twists and operational pointers for future warriors."--Kirkus Reviews "Authors Starks and Murcutt absorbingly recount the political conquest of Tibet through the story of these five young men's unwitting embroilment in an international incident and their extraordinary journey home."--Publishers Weekly online "This is a fine story of courage and diplomacy that presents invaluable information on a little-known theater of WWII and insight into the Tibet-China political situation."--Booklist "This is a 'must-read' for mountaineers and history buffs alike. I was absorbed and moved."--Amanda Daflos, Director, Special Projects, International Mountain Explorers Connection, "This book tells about an incident that has been hidden for too many years.

Presents a story of adventure, cultural conflict, and political intrigue. This title also aims to shed light on the remarkable Tibetan people, just at that moment when they were coming to terms with a hostile outside world., Caught in a violent storm and blown far off their intended course, five American airmen - flying the dangerous Himalayan supply route known as "The Hump" - were forced to bail out just seconds before their plane ran out of fuel.

- a***9 (75)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI would DEFINITELY purchase from this seller again. Seller might want to add more pics and better description because there was a tear on the back dust jacket that wasn’t mentioned. Could’ve happened during shipping so I’m not holding it against the seller. I fixed with tape on the inside of jacket. No harm/no foul. The seller had a more than generous price for this book + free shipping. NO complaints. Hence, I would purchase from this seller again without hesitation.

My order was packaged with care and arrived in like new condition! It was just as described in the listing. The seller wasted no time in updating me with tracking information and shipped out. The order arrived quickly. I am pleased with all the aspects of my purchase and would look forward to doing more business in the future. Highly Recommended! Thank you, well done!Once Upon a Town: The Miracle of the North- 9780060081966, Bob Greene, hardcover (Nr. 305441282671)
