Bruce Barcot The New York Times Book Review The greatest pleasures
in High Exposure come when [Breashears] invites his readers
in to the clannish subculture [of climbing].
Claire Martin The Denver Post Very few of us will ever set
foot on Everest....But this thoughtful, philosophical narrative may
be the next best thing to being there.
Stephen Ambrose author of Undaunted Courage I've spent a
lifetime reading books by or about the famous adventurers....David
Breashears's book is the first I've read by an
end-of-the-twentieth-century mountain climber that surpasses many
of them and is equal to all.
