Near-new copy! NO remainder marks or price clippings - Stated First Printing - Price inside dustcover: $24.00 - Illustrated with photos - 322 pages - Among the world's most intrepid and fearless climbers, Jim Wickwire has traveled the globe, from Alaska to the Alps, from the Andes to the Himalayas, in search of fresh challenges and new heights to conquer. Along the way he accumulated an extraordinary roster of historic achievements. He was one of the first two Americans to reach the summit of the 28,250-foot K2, the world's second highest peak, acknowledged as the toughest and most dangerous to climb. But with the triumphs came harrowing incidents of suffering and loss that haunt him still. On one climb, his shoulder broken by a fall, he watched helplessly as a friend slowly froze to death, trapped in an ice crevasse. Buffeted by storms, Wickwire spent two weeks utterly alone on a remote glacier before his rescue. After more than three decades of uncommon challenges, Wickwire faced a crisis of heart - a turning point that threatened his faith in himself and his hope in the future. How he reassessed his priorities and rededicated his life - to his family and to his community - completes a unique and moving portrait of one man's courage, commitment, and grace under pressure. Addicted to Danger is a tale of adventure in its truest sense.
