Description
Each account in this book tells in brief what happened, of course, but its browser-grabber will be the accompanying historical, spot-journalism, and cinematic photos. They freeze the drama and immortalize the emotions of escape, such as sheer elation. Nazis, Communists, Jim Jones, sharks, natural disasters, cannibals, name the menace, and it likely lurks within, along with survivors' testimonies about their close calls.
Target Audience
012 and up.
