Prize-wining True Stories of the Supreme Moment -- When Men Suddenly Face Death! Some of these true stories are already famous because they have been dramatized on television. All of them take you straight to the heart of great moments of crisis. You'll know what it's like to look down at the wide Pacific and realize that your plane is going to ditch there. You'll twist the wheel of your racing car as it takes a narrow turn at Indianapolis. You'll struggle in cabin 56 of the S.S. Andrew Doria during its five last frantic hours. In these and other stories, Carnelius Ryan, ace journalist, has caught the essence of that split-second that may be a man's last.
