While we saw what transpired above ground during the grueling and protracted rescue, the story of the miners’ experiences below the earth’s surface -- and the lives that led them there -- hasn’t been heard until now.
In Deep Down Dark, a master work by a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist, Héctor Tobar gains exclusive access to the miners and their stories.
