"In January 1963, Helen Klaben, a 21-year-old Brooklyn girl, hitched a plane ride from Alaska. Her destination was San Francisco; and from there, Hong Kong; and then around the world. But the plane crashed in the Yukon wilderness, and she and her pilot were marooned for 49 days before a daring rescue made world headlines...." (from the dustjacket)
