Book Details
Edition Notes
Erik Weihenmayer learned from doctors that he was destined to lose his sight by the age of thirteen. Yet he was determined to rise above this devastating disability and lead a fufilling, exciting life. His dream was to climb mountains and he became the first blind man to reach the summit of McKinley. His quest was to reach each of the Seven Summits and he speaks movingly if the role his family played in his battle. He had the vision to dream big; the courage to reach for near impossible goals; and the grit, determination, and ingenuity to fufil his dream.
