On 13 October 1972, the members of a top Uruguayan rugby team were flying over the Andes to play in Chile. Their plane crashed into a mountain and was stranded 11,000 feet up on an inhospitable glacier. Many died instantly in the crash, including the person sitting next to Nando, but others survived. They had almost no food or suitable equipment to withstand temperatures as low as -35C, and had to eat the bodies of their dead team-mates to survive. With the prospect only of a slow death, and no rescue likely, Nando and one of his friends set off on an impossible journey, walking and climbing for ten days in search of help. Finally, after 72 days, the 16 survivors were brought to safety.©2006 Nando Parrado; (P)2006 Orion Publishing Group Ltd.

Given up for dead after an air crash in the Andes in 1972, Nando Parrado not only survived but showed the strength and determination that saved his own life and that of his fifteen friends. Now he gives his own account of his ordeal -enthralling, enlightening, modest, and moving. An impressive testimony to what love can achieve (Piers Paul Read, author of Alive)
Miracle in the Andes is an astonishing account of an unimaginable ordeal. In straightforward, staggeringly honest prose, Nando Parrado tells us what it took - and what it actually felt like - to survive high in the Andes 72 days after having been given up for dead. If you pick this book up, you will not be able to put it down (Jon Krakauer, author of Into Thin Air)
Fantastic - it's the most emotional book I've ever read (Sir Jackie Stewart)

So wonderful to hear what happened to everyone. Lots of children born & happy lives continued. Such a relief after the suffering on the mountain. Loved hearing Nando speak.

It's all about love, how amazing!

a tale of survival that is in depth and disturbing, yet shows the strength of human will.

Disturbing yet rivetting.

I can't express how moved and awestruck I felt listening to this. I saw Alive at the pictures with my parents when I was 13 and it was so harrowing the story stuck with me and I immediately read the book by Piers Paul Read. Recently I watched a documentary about the survivors, with some of their family members giving their accounts which was so incredibly moving and made you realise that this actually happened to good people, forced into an impossible situation. And they overcome it at all odds and have not only survived, they have gone on to live their lifes full of love. I subsequently watched Society of the Snow and then sought out this book which has been I think the most humbling account of all. Hearing the real Nando, the warmth in his voice even when he recounts unfathomable heartbreak, has really touched me. The bond between all of these brave survivors has really been expressed and it is so good to hear that they have gone on to live such meaningful lives in a cruel world. A wonderful message to us all. Life is precious and love is all that matters. An outstanding book.

Incredible, moving, humbling
