janel1994 's review for:
Fantastic book. On May 13, 1945 , 24 servicemen and women were on a military plane that crashed in a valley in the mountains of New Guinea. They were on a site seeing tour to a place dubbed Shangri-La. Only three people survived. Two servicemen and a WAC. The book is about their survival and the attempts to rescue them as well as their interactions with the native people.
I was not aware of this story. I enjoy WWII history and particularly enjoy survivor stories. This book was hard to put down and there is so much to admire in the actions of the men and women. The relationships they developed with the native people on the island was also interesting.
