Title: If a climber - not worth buying.
Review: I'm glad Beck survived, that is truly inspiring. I would probably go and listen to a lecture by him. However, don't buy this book if you expect interesting climbing stories. It's more about family dysfunction. In 10 minutes you can glean most of the climbing out of it.The rest of the story? Pull out 20 years of poorly written, overly long Christmas letters from eccentric 4th cousins - substitute names and you have this book.
