The Long March: Library Edition

Thomas Hargrove s is a record of Hargrove s eleven months as a hostage of Colombian guerrillas and was the basis for the recent movie hit that starred Meg Ryan, Russell Crowe, and David Morse. While the movie invented a fictitious romantic angle, is the actual journal Hargrove kept in captivity, and the listener gets a sense of the intense emotions and the tension caused by bouts of monotony broken by sudden brutality as well as the strength, wit, and personality through which Hargrove kept himself alive.
