On a mission in 1942, an American squadron of six P-38s and two B-17s was forced to crash-land on an ice cap in Greenland. Although the crew was rescued, the planes were abandoned on the site, where, as the story goes, they had been intermittently spotted over the years. Lured by tales of the Lost Squadron, Pat Epps and Richard Taylor decided to look for the planes. This book tells the amazing story of how a fiercely determined group of people overcame astonishing odds in pursuit of a 12-year dream, finally rescuing one of the lost P-38s from its 260-foot grave of solid ice and bringing it home to fly the skies again. Color & b&w photos.
