[Alan · Rating 5 out of 5]

A fast reading book which provides short, very intense, biographical overviews of climbers, sailors and adventurers with their, very often, tragic endings. A good starting point to find out which of the people covered you want to then read more about in longer biographies.

I liked this book, the author did a great job of re-telling the stories of some great adventurers, and questioned their motives and reasons behind the feats they accomplished. An interesting read.
