A Climber’s Journey of Endurance, Risk, and Going Beyond Limits<\/p>\n
A dramatic, inspiring memoir by legendary rock climber Tommy Caldwell, the
\nfirst person to free climb the Dawn Wall of Yosemite’s El Capitan. On January
\n14, 2015, Tommy Caldwell, along with his partner, Kevin Jorgeson, summited
\nwhat is widely regarded as the hardest climb in history Yosemite’s nearly
\nvertical 3,000-foot Dawn Wall, after nineteen days on the route.<\/p>\n
Caldwell’s odds-defying feat was the culmination of an entire lifetime of
\npushing himself to his limits as an athlete.<\/p>\n
This engrossing memoir chronicles the journey of a boy with a fanatical
\nmountain-guide father who was determined to instill toughness in his son to a
\nteen whose obsessive nature drove him to the top of the sport-climbing
\ncircuit.<\/p>\n
Caldwell s affinity for adventure then led him to the vertigo-inducing and
\nlittle understood world of big wall free climbing. But his evolution as a
\nclimber was not without challenges; in his early twenties, he was held hostage
\nby militants in a harrowing ordeal in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. Soon after,
\nhe lost his left index finger in an accident. Later his wife, and main
\nclimbing partner, left him. Caldwell emerged from these hardships with a
\nrenewed sense of purpose and determination. He set his sights on free climbing
\nEl Capitan s biggest, steepest, blankest face the Dawn Wall. This epic assault
\ntook more than seven years, during which time Caldwell redefined the sport,
\nfound love again, and became a father.<\/p>\n
The Push is an arresting story of focus, drive, motivation, endurance, and
\ntransformation, a book that will appeal to anyone<\/p>\n
