MIRACLE IN THE ANDES(ISBN=9781400097692) chm umd 阿里云 下载 夸克云 pdf azw3 kindle

　　In the first hours there was nothing, no fear or sadness, just

a black and perfect silence.

Nando Parrado was unconscious for three days before he woke to

discover that the plane carrying his rugby team, as well as their

family members and supporters, to an exhibition game in Chile had

crashed somewhere deep in the Andes. He soon learned that many were

dead or dying—among them his own mother and sister. Those who

remained were stranded on a lifeless glacier at nearly 12,000 feet

above sea level, with no supplies and no means of summoning help.

They struggled to endure freezing temperatures, deadly avalanches,

and then the devastating news that the search for them had been

called off.

As time passed and Nando’s thoughts turned increasingly to his

father, who he knew must be consumed with grief, Nando resolved

that he must get home or die trying. He would challenge the Andes,

even though he was certain the effort would kill him, telling

himself that even if he failed he would die that much closer to his

father. It was a desperate decision, but it was also his only

chance. So Nando, an ordinary young man with no disposition for

leadership or heroism, led an expedition up the treacherous slopes

of a snow-capped mountain and across forty-five miles of frozen

wilderness in an attempt to find help.

Thirty years after the disaster Nando tells his story with

remarkable candor and depth of feeling. Miracle in the Andes—a

first person account of the crash and its aftermath—is more than a

riveting tale of true-life adventure: it is a revealing look at

life at the edge of death and a meditation on the limitless

redemptive power of love.
