1.Into the WildInto the Wild
from Anchor
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
I feel the same as one of the other reviewers; why summarize the story on the cover and tell me what happens?
I couldn't get to the end of this book, to be honest, I couldn't even read past page 55ish. I tried, I kept reading as much as I could and as far as I could, but this book isn't worth... more info

2.Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent FaithUnder the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith
from Anchor
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:

Before I read this book I had a number of friends tell me about it. Some loved it, some hated it, but they all agreed that it was a very negative portrayal of Mormons as a people and a religion.
Even with that knowledge going in I was very disappointed in this book.
After reading it... more info

3.Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mount Everest DisasterInto Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mount Everest Disaster
from Topeka Bindery
Price: $25.70

Customer Review:
I enjoyed the actual book much more than the audiobook, mainly because Krakauer reads the text so fast that he takes a lot of the emotion out of the story.

4.Eiger Dreams: Ventures Among Men and MountainsEiger Dreams: Ventures Among Men and Mountains
from The Lyons Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I was impressed enough by INTO THIN AIR, his '97 account of the previous year's Everest climbing disaster, that picking up a used copy of EIGER DREAMS was a done deal. I didn't pay enough attention when buying it, however( at a local used bookstore) to learn that it was a compilation of... more info

5.Forget Me Not: A MemoirForget Me Not: A Memoir
from Mountaineers Books
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
After Alex died I was devistated.
As a member of Alex's climbing community I have met many that knew him.
Unfortunately for me I never had the pleasure. He was a 'climbers, climber', a man that always had something to give, to a beginner or an old seasoned alpinist looking at new... more info

6.The Best American Essays of the Century (The Best American Series (TM))The Best American Essays of the Century (The Best American Series (TM))
from Houghton Mifflin
Price: $25.00

Customer Review:
This is a fantastic sampling of American memoir and reflections on race, gender, nature, literature, and other topics of broad interest. It features the century's greatest, starting with Twain, ending with Bellow. The volume is beautifully introduced by Atwan and Oates, both of whom help chip away... more info

7.Iceland: Land of the SagasIceland: Land of the Sagas
from Villard
Price: $19.75

Customer Review:
A beautiful book combining stunning photography with an in-depth historical, literary, and cultural examination of Iceland. This book manages to be heavy on both text and photographs.
Recommended for those interested in Iceland, but it is not a travel guide-type book.

8.High Exposure: An Enduring Passion for Everest and Unforgiving PlacesHigh Exposure: An Enduring Passion for Everest and Unforgiving Places
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $11.68

Customer Review:
This is as much a book about climbing Everest as it is an autobiography about a man's inner struggles. Would be a good read for a psychology class. The author gives great attention to detail and does a good job explaining the sport of mountain climbing to the novice.
As you read about the... more info

9.[no image]Into Thin Air
from Anchor

Customer Review:
This is a poignant, compelling narrative about Chris McCandless, an intelligent, intense, and idealistic young man, who cut off all ties to his upper middle class family. He then reinvented himself as Alexander Supertramp, a drifter living out of a backpack, eking out a marginal existence as he... more info

Customer Review:
Talk about an incredibly survival journey, this is it. These guys were very resourceful and strong and tough. But the elements start to take there toll. Imagine yourself in a handmade tiny kayak, and you're making an open water sea crossing, and then the winds pick up to hurricane force. What would... more info
