I was excited to read about this mountain climber that I’d heard so much about. However, I can’t recommend his autobiography. It is not well-written. There are many interesting stories about his adventures, but I kept stumbling over the poorly worded passages. He gives way too many details in some instances and the reader feels like he/she is plowing through to get to the climax of the story. I also found the large serif typeface distracting as I was reading.

I received this book through the Member Giveaway program at LT. I was excited to read about this mountain climber that I’d heard so much about. I can’t recommend his autobiography though. It is not well-written. There are many interesting stories, but I kept stumbling over the poorly worded passages. He gives way too many details in some instances and then in others leaves the reader hanging. The typeface was distracting to me as well.
