Hans-Ulrich Rudel - Von den Stukas zu den Anden Gebundenes Buch

Hans-Ulrich Rudel - bearer of the golden oak leaves with swords and diamonds, the highest German bravery award - describes in this vividly written book after a review of war and postwar experiences his mountaineering activities in the imposing South American high mountain world. The focus is on the first ascent and two other summit conquests of the 6,920-meter-high Llullay-Yacu, the highest volcano on earth. These expeditions, which even cost the lives of a German mountain mate, were not only the exceptionally athletic achievements of the leg amputated pack, they also provided important research results: The mystery of mysterious Inca buildings near the summit of the Llullay-Yacu was solved. Rudel's impressive portrayal captivates the reader with the abundance of adventures and the sportive spirit with which the dangers were lived through and passed. Also from this book speaks unmistakably Rudels life motto: Lost is only, who gives himself up!
