Story
Before Georgetown physics professor Francis Slakey decided to climb the highest mountain on every continent and surf every ocean, he had shut himself off from other people. His lectures were mechanical; his relationships were little more than ways to fill the evenings. But as his journey veered dangerously off course, everything began to change. A gripping adventure of the body and mind, To the Last Breath depicts the quest that leads Slakey around the globe, almost takes his life, and opens his heart.

Story
"È una lotta veramente disperata la nostra, fra la realtà e noi stessi, ma alla fine siamo noi a vincere e alle 12:30 esatte le nostre bandierine sventolano o meglio sbattono al vento burrascoso della vetta. Siamo sulla punta massima del GIV a 7980 metri di quota". Così Walter Bonatti rievoca la conquista del Gasherbrum IV da parte della spedizione italiana il 6 agosto del 1958. Un’epica impresa tra le nevi perenni del Karakorum, diversa da tutte le altre, compiuta su una via che nessuno mai più ripeterà nei successivi sessant’anni.

Story
Tom Ballard fu "figlio della montagna" nel senso più profondo del termine. Non è un'ardita metafora, ma la sintesi di un rapporto che è stato prima genetico e poi animato da una passione esclusiva, irrefrenabile, assoluta. Era figlio di Alison Hargreaves, "la più forte delle donne alpiniste", secondo Reinhold Messner. E anche una delle più controverse: aveva scalato l'Eiger tre mesi prima di dare alla luce Tom, sollevando un vespaio di polemiche.
