This time I would like to recommend Lost in Shangri-La, a true story of survival, adventure,

and the most incredible rescue mission of World War Two by Mitchell Zoukof.

It's a true story that takes place on May 13, 1945.

When 24 airmen and some women in the army are taken on a pleasure trip to see Shangri-La,

there's a newly discovered island, and of course the plain wrecks, because there were

like over 600 planes that went down in this area during the war, and there are three survivors

out of all those people, two men and a lady, and they're all badly injured.

Somehow they have to make it back to safety, but we're still technically at war with

the Japanese, and the Japanese are on the island, not to mention some man-eating headhunters,

so they climb down the mountain trying to get to safety, and they stumbled upon this

very primitive tribe of superstitious people who have never been seen a white man or woman

before.

So it's an amazing story.

I think you would like it, and it came out I think two months ago, and Audible just picked

it up, so I certainly recommend it to you.
