This is the inspirational, motivational story of climber Nick Allen, who went from wheelchair-bound with multiple sclerosis to life in the mountains through sheer determination and grit. This book follows Nicks first faltering steps back into the back country and his decision to set up a trust so other MS sufferers can have outdoor experiences. And it follows his astounding adventure: trekking to base camp at Everest, and at considerable risk to his health conquering the Himalayan peak, Imja Tse.
