On wings of eagles is the true story of an incredible rescue by a Green Beret colonel and a group of corporate executives hastily trained into a fighting team. When Ross Perot, millionaire head of the Dallas-based company EDS, discovered that two of his key men in Iran had been jailed, he turned to the one man in America who could help. Colonel Bull Simons, famed World War II and Vietnam commando, agreed to do what the U.S. government could not - go in and get the men out.

Yay, the first package of the Winter Lottery. The story sounds very interesting, especially since it is a more non-fiction book of a true story. I still have some books to read, but this one will be read some day.

Thank you EmEli

It took a while, but I finished the book while watching the world cup game Spain-Chile (and what a match that was).

It was a very exciting story about the rescue of 2 EDS employees that have been put in jail in Iran to serve as financial hostages. It almost read like an episode of Locked up Abroad from National Geographic and you tense up every time the rescue is hindered by police, customs, revolutionaries and local tribes. Follet did a good job translating this true story into a book without making it a boring sum of facts.

Thank you EmEli for selecting this book for me. It was a pleasant read :)
