33 Incredible Survival Stories from
all over the world. Includes in the winderness, mountains, oceans,
deserts, and more. Some great stories of the triumpth of the human
spirit.
I have my own survival stories and maybe this is part of the reason why
all these other stories interest me so much.
Everyone loves to learn about survival stories because it confirms the
importance of the human spirit to live through trying and deadly
situations.
I’ve included thirty three true life stories in this book.
The criteria was that the persons in these events had to make a
conscious decision to live. They decided not to give up and some did
truly incredible things to survive.
We need to ask ourselves could we do some of the things they did to
survive. For example, how many of us could cut off a hand to live if we
were trapped in the wilderness?
How many of us could survive a raft in the sea for a month to then be
put into a POW prison and survive harsh treatment and torture there.
These people have all illustrated the power of the human spirit to live
through these experiences. And these experiences made them more
confident people and better able to live through difficult situations
in the future.
These stories are divided up into five categories:
• Survival In War
• Survival in the Wilderness and
Mountains
• Survival in the Ocean
• Survival in the Arctic and
Antarctic
• Surviving the Desert
• More Survival Stories for Ones
