Books like Escape from Laos

I admit that parts of this book were difficult to read. The things that prisoners of war have to endure are beyond my comprehension. It is enlightening to know that in the world, there are those that still try and show a bit kindness to captives, though perhaps not the majority. The description of their trek through the jungle had me squirming in my chair. The survival instinct is real. I couldn't put the book down until the end. My heart broke with Dieter's, I cried, was overjoyed at "luck" that happened in many parts. I am interested in seeing the movie that tells this story.
