Robert Piché : hands on destiny

Journalist Pierre Cayouette's story of an anything-but-ordinary life takes on the semblance of an adventure. The tale begins in Quebec on the snow-covered runways of the Gaspé, James Bay and the lower North Shore, and weaves its way to Vietnam and the stormy skies over Ho Chi Minh City, back to the American South and a Georgia prison, then into the pulsating night jungle of Montreal, and on the roads of Iqaluit. Then comes that unforgettable day when Captain Piché finds himself at the controls of an aircraft whose engines have run out of fuel... 39,000 feet up... at night... in the mid-Atlantic.
