Title: At Best An Excessive Embellishment
Review: I eagerly purchased this book based on a review in a magazine. What a mistake. I suspect the author had some sort of encounter with a bear and then dreamed up a story that somehow made it into print after 22 years. A bear would not behave as portrayed in the book. The circumstances of its demise is laughably unrealistic. The choices made as part of the climb are not those of an experienced climber. I expected much better and am disappointed a publisher would have so easily allowed nonsense to reach print in the form of a serious book.
