MEMOIR A DRAMATIC, INSPIRING memoir by LEGENDARY ROCK CLIMBER TOMMY CALDWELL, the first person to free climb the Dawn Wall of Yosemite's El Capitan AN ARRESTING STORY of FOCUS, DRIVE, MOTIVATION, ENDURANCE, and TRANSFORMATION A book that WILL APPEAL to ANYONE SEEKING to OVERCOME FEAR and DOUBT, CULTIVATE PERSEVERANCE, turn FAILURE INTO GROWTH, AND FIND CONNECTION with FAMILY and WITH THE NATURAL WORLD.

-If you want to be inspired by a great leader, if you want to feel what it takes to do what no one thought possible, if you want to be absorbed by a heroic journey--Tommy Caldwell's story is one of the best you could ever hope to find.- - Jim Collins, author of Good to Great On January 14, 2015, along with his partner, Kevin Jorgeson, he summited what is widely regarded as the hardest climb in history--Yosemite's nearly vertical 3,000-foot Dawn Wall, after nineteen days on the route.

This engrossing memoir chronicles the journey of a boy with a fanatical mountain-guide father who was determined to instill toughness in his son to a teen whose obsessive nature drove him to the top of the sport-climbing circuit.
