Bear Grylls brings two personal expedition narratives together in this volume. Facing Up recounts his attempt to climb Everest after recovering from a serious back injury, following the physical demands, friendships, and fears involved in pursuing the mountain’s summit. Facing the Frozen Ocean moves to a journey across the North Atlantic in a small open rigid-inflatable boat, where cold, weather, and mechanical uncertainty place the crew under constant pressure. Both accounts connect ambitious plans with the practical realities of carrying them out. Two All-Action Adventures offers readers stories of teamwork and persistence, giving attention to the setbacks, humor, and difficult decisions that accompany expeditions far from the comfort and predictability of ordinary life.
