Summary: A gripping, harrowing tale. Not to be missed!
Review: This is a truly amazing story about 4 guys whose adventure in the Amazon slowly turns into a fight for survival. Under intense pressure their faith in each other is shaken and teamwork breaks down. 2 will pay with their lives. If you liked "Into thin Air" you will love this book. My copy of this book was read by 5 freinds and they all loved it. I have never owned a book which so many people wanted to borrow.

Summary: Jungle Survivor
Review: What the players on the popular survival shows go through is nothing compared to what the author of this book went through to survive in the Amazon jungle! Yossi Ghinsberg set out with three other men to experience a real jungle, and for sure, encountered incredible plant and animal life. But it didn't stop there. When the foursome split into two groups, Yossi and his companion then became separated when Yossi was swept away down the powerful Tuichi River. At that point, Yossi was on his own, and narrates his awesome struggle for survival...to find food and shelter, and to combat such things as the fungus that was eating his feet, jaguars, fireants, termites that carpeted his body and bored into it, and steep, slippery cliffs. Whew! I am reading the book a second time, this time to my teenage children, to give them an appreciation for what true suffering is, and to help them realize that humans can, with motivation and determination, endure and overcome great obstacles. When we start complaining about our daily irritations, this is the kind of book we need to read to help us consider our blessings.

Summary: Wonderful book, I would recommend it to everyonr.
Review: Yossi has been a friend of my mother for about 1yr now, personally I'm not one for reading these types of books, but my mum told me it was really good. Finally i sat down and began reading, the story was great. I have met Yossi once and it was really weird reading about someone you know having such an amazing adventure. If Yossi reads this review this is Julia, Wendas daughter. You did good Yossi, one fantastic book you got there. See ya
