Description: A hair - raising tale of survival in the forbidding depths of space. This book tells for the first time, the complete story of that ill starred mission. Not since Apollo 13 had a mission been beset by so many near-fatal catastrophes. Buit while the former lasted only a few breathless days, the Mir mission went on for five months---132 days of unremitting danger and deprivation that stretched the crew's ingenuity, endurance, and courage to the limit.
