      ''An inspirational study in leadership and a powerful testament to the human spirit at its very best.''
      - Mail on Sunday

      ''The energy of the book gives it pace and you whip through, rather as Purja nips up verticals... Whether or not you are a lover of the mountains, you will marvel at his tenacity, his fearlessness. No one can fail to be inspired by what he achieved.'' - The Times

      ''The magnitude of his achievement is astonishing.'' Soldier Magazine
