Sample Book Insights:
#1 The fishing-boat that landed on the Norwegian coast on the 29th of March, 1943, was carrying twelve men. Eight of them were the crew of the fishing-boat, who had sailed it safely across a thousand miles of ocean No-man's-land.
#2 In 1943, the Norwegian coast was of extreme importance to the Germans. The Allied convoys that traveled to the Russian arctic ports passed through this narrow strip of open sea between Norway and the arctic ice.
#3 The expedition to northern Norway had a possible importance out of all proportion to the size of the expedition. It was hoped that the four men who were to be landed would be able to put the air base at Bardufoss out of action long enough for a convoy to have a chance of getting through undetected.
#4 The passengers were as varied in experience and background as any four Norwegians could have been. Their leader was a man in his middle forties named Sigurd Eskeland. He had emigrated to South America at age 20, and spent most of his adult life in the back of beyond in Argentina running a fur farm.
