Sixteen Men, Seventy-Two Days, and Insurmountable Odds--the Classic Adventure of Survival in the Andes

On October 12, 1972, an Uruguayan Air Force plane carrying a team of rugby players crashed in the remote snowy peaks of the Andes. Ten weeks later, only sixteen of the forty-five passengers were found alive. This is the story of those ten weeks spent in the shelter of the plane's fuselage without food and with scarcely any hope of a rescue. The survivors protected and helped one another, and came to the difficult conclusion that to live meant doing the unimaginable. Confronting nature at its most furious, two brave young men risked their lives to hike through the mountains looking for help. A tale of astonishing bravery and adventure, Alive is much more than a survival story, it is a breathtaking saga of human courage

The P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including interviews, recommended reading, and more.

Great little screen.

Great divider. Provides just enough privacy from my colleague in the office across from me (and vice versa). Easy to set up and sturdy. Worth the price IMO.

Perfect Divider Wall!
Color: Iron, Color: Iron
This Divider Wall is perfect for creating a private and organized space! The sleek black design blends seamlessly into my room, and the build quality is excellent. It’s lightweight yet sturdy, standing firmly on the floor without wobbling. I use it to separate my desk area from my bed, and it makes the room feel more functional and professional. Highly recommended for anyone looking to divide their space efficiently while maintaining a modern aesthetic!

Great for separation and stands on its on without issues.
Color: Midnight
Nice panel! But ... if you plan to use as a bulletin board, not great. We are going to place styrofoam in between to see if can get things to stay in place. We homeschool and it keeps our grands from distracting each other.

Provides privacy without being stanoffish
Color: Steel, Color: Steel
Its a perfect way to get a lil bit of privacy, its the color steel. Its a little darker than the picture but it works. Free standing doesn't attach to furniture and takes maybe 10 mins to put together. It's about 5 feet tall. Very lightweight cover slides over the steel frame and zips st the bottom.
