Connecticut native Mark Gonzalves (pictured left) moves up two spots on the NY Times hardcover nonfiction bestseller list, to land at No 3 this week with his book Out of Captivity.
Mr. Gonzalves co-authored the book with Keith Stansell, Tom Howes and Gary Brozek. Mr. Stansell and Mr. Howes were captured, along with Gonzalves, and held hostage by Colombian FARC rebels in 2003.
Mr. Gonzalves, an imagery analyst trained in the US Air Force, was part a Northrop Grumman team said to be monitoring drug traffickers and leftist guerrillas in Colombia at the time, with a contract from the US government worth $8.6 million.
He was kidnapped when his small airplane crashed in the mountains.
