## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A Compilation of Articles
  

*by M***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2021*

This book is a compilation of articles written for other publications in the past.  Although I am a fan of Krakauer, some of these stories are more compelling than others.  Some of the short stories are dated and no longer topical unless the particular subject is important to you.  The 1990s story of a boy who perished in a wilderness survival/rehab camp doesn't fit the compilation at all and is far from enjoyable or entertaining reading,  This book is actually not exceptional at all.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Jon Krakauer adventurer/author.
  

*by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2020*

Jon Krakauer can write adventure stories like few other authors and some of his stories chronicle some of the great adventures and adventurers of our time. When I read J.K's work, I feel transported from my "one foot in front of the other"life to being vicariously with people who aim high; people who conquer mountains or surf very high waves. J.K captures that ecstasy of living on the edge of life and sometimes winning and sometimes not. When I read J.K. stories, I know I am going to be taken to a time and place I will never have the guts or ability to go on my own. I highly recommend buying this book: it will take you there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Still relevant stories from the extreme edge of sport and exploration
  

*by W***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2020*

Although most of these essays are from articles published a quarter of a century ago, they’ve aged well since wilderness exploration, extreme sports, and human behavior don’t change that much. I was even interested enough to follow up on the internet to learn more about some of the stories or people profiled here. Thanks to Krakauer’s evocative descriptions, eye for detail, and fluid prose this remains an engaging read despite the passage of time.
