He knew what \u003ci\u003enot\u003c\/i\u003e to do—not drink alcohol and not get arrested again. But no one had told him what it was that he \u003ci\u003ecould\u003c\/i\u003e do.

Then his brother gave him a climbing rope. And along that sixty-meter lifeline, Brendan gradually found redemption in the crags of the American West. He became a climber, someone who learned to push past fear, to tough it out during long, grueling days in the mountains; someone who supported his partners, keeping them safe in dangerous situations and volatile environments; someone with confidence, purpose, and space to breathe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eSixty Meters to Anywhere\u003c\/i\u003e is the painfully honest story of a life changed by climbing, and the sometimes nervous, sometimes nerve-wracking, and often awkward first years of recovery. In the mountains, Leonard ultimately finds a second chance.","brand":"Mountaineers Books, The","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130871922928,"sku":"9781680510430","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781680510430_p0.jpg?v=1763689247","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781680510430","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
