Items related to Cheating Death: Amazing Survival Stories from Alaska
Synopsis
A chilling collection of survival stories from pilots, hikers, hunters, climbers, boaters, and fishermen who confront their mortality -- and live to tell about it! You will be astonished by the close calls of a young man who clings desperately to life on an iceberg in the lower Susitna River... a woman who struggles frantically to escape the cockpit of a small plane sinking beneath the waters of a remote bay in Southeast... the climbers who fight stubbornly to survive as avalanche after avalanche sweeps over them... and the diver who tangles with a giant octopus.

From the Author
Go safely.
This book would not exist were it not for the gracious first hand accounts given by the participants. Hopefully all who read Cheating Death will go safely in their outings, be they outdoor or otherwise. You may wish to peruse my new book from St. Martin's Press, Danger Stalks the Land.
