"Some inconsistencies of fact"
I bought this book because a close friend has suffered severe injuries in a motor accident. While the story is told with conviction and seemed to be true the final account of the landing in Lusaka Zambia is questionable. Zambia has never imposed weeks long country-wide blackouts. Zambians, as a nation, are not generally giants of over six foot tall. I find it hard to believe that the aircraft that landed at Lusaka - on a date omitted in the book - was met by amazon military and their amazon wives in a Zambia where I am sure there never was prolonged nationwide blackout. These small facts puts into question the entire veracity of the author's experience.
