This book takes you from the first glance up to the top of the mountain and all the preparation in between. For someone like me who never wanted to climb a mountain whether it was THERE or not, it demonstrates the love, beauty and spendor from simply putting one foot in front of the other until you reach your goal. Full of loving memory and beauty of the view, Bradford Washburn shares a life of adventure and purpose. Quite a read!
