Title: Below
Review: I have not read this book and after attending a promotional event with Mr. Breashears tonight in Burlington, Vt. I wont read this book. Mr.Breashears is obviously in the Krakauer camp, as when he was asked about Anatoli Boukreev he replied by liking him to waiting in the "parking lot" while his family was in danger at the top of the mountain. He failed to mentional that Boukreev was the only one who actually saved anyone. When asked another question his reply was "I'm not here to talk about the Imax movie, I'm here to talk about my book". . .this after giving the audience a hour slide show discussing the making of the Imax movie. I was extremely disappointed to see that Breashears has joined the crowd of apologists for the events of 1996. Of course he didn't get paid for his endeavors in making the Imax movie, yet he comes on as such a purist it makes you sick.
