On Nov. 5, 1942, a U.S. cargo plane went down on the Greenland ice cap. Four days later, a B-17 crashed while looking for it, and then a Grumman Duck amphibious plane, also sent to rescue the survivors went missing. Zuckoff tells the story of how a group of airmen managed to stay alive for 148 days of Arctic winter, and how an expedition led by Arctic explorer Bernt Balchen finally reached them. Zuckoff is also known for his bestseller Lost in Shangri-La, and is winner of the Winship/PEN New England Award.
