Lost In The Himalayas
In the Himalayan winter, without food or shelter, a human being is not expected to live longer than a week. James Scott lasted 43 days.
He survived cold, hunger, isolation and despair, hanging on the dwindling hope that a search team might find him, or that he could crawl out when the snow thawed. He should never have made it out of the mountains alive.
This is the incredible story of his survival, of how he focused his thoughts to sustain hope until he was rescued.
It is also the story of another struggle, of the search kept alive by his sister, Joanne Robertson. Fighting disbelief and the difficulties of working with government officials in a foreign country, she refused to give up hop, systematically eliminating every possibility — long past the point where anyone expected to find much more than James’ body.
Lost in the Himalayas is a story about hope, endurance, survival and the human spirit
