Mitchel Zuckoff – “Frozen in Time: An Epic Story of Survival and a Modern Quest for Lost Heroes of World War II”

_0014_mzuckoffFrozen in Time is a true story of survival, bravery, and honor in the vast Arctic wilderness during World War II. A B-17 assigned to the search and rescue mission became lost in a blinding storm and also crashed. Miraculously, all nine men on the B-17 survived. With the weather worsening, the U.S. military launched a daring rescue mission, sending a Grumman Duck amphibious plane to find them. After picking up one member of the B-17 crew, the Duck flew into a severe storm, and the plane and the three men aboard vanished. In this thrilling, true-life adventure, Mitchell Zuckoff offers a spellbinding account of these harrowing crashes and the fate of the survivors and would-be saviors.
