But Donn doesn't expect a fast-moving fog to obscure his path, knocking him completely off course. He doesn't count on falling down an embankment that hides him from sight. And he never could have imagined taking a wrong turn that leaves him alone to wander aimlessly for nearly two weeks in the empty mountain wilderness. A true and inspiring story about a boy's harrowing journey through nature's unforgiving terrain.

  • Inspiring Read

    Even though nearly 80 years since this story happened, it still applies to today. The courage and ingenuity of Donn Fendler is a good example to any young boy (or girl). I read this book as a child and couldn't put it down and now I've given it to my grandchildren. I hope they will enjoy it as much as I did, learn from it, and be inspired just as I was.

  • Lost on a Mountain in Maine

    What a wonderful book! A young man lost taking us through the emotion of it, the wet, the cold, the bugs....the determination to make it out. The highs and lows of finding cabins but not much of help but a little gleaned in each place. Boy Scouts training helped him enough to follow the water and keep going in the face of bleeding feet, loss of weight and sooo many bug bites. Short compelling read for young me. I can't wait to give it to my 12 year old grandson.
