From the Dust Jacket: "From a boyhood's love of mountains Norman Croucher triumphed over an accident at the age of 19 in which he lost both legs below the knee, to go on to fulfill his dream of becoming a mountaineer and who has climbed and led expeditions in almost all the major mountain ranges of the world. [After] training in the Alps, he went on to Peru, Argentina, Kashmir and China, where he made several ascents in excess of 20,000 feet. The story of his grueling battle on Muztagh Ata, 24,757 feet, in China, is enough to leave one breathless. Even when one of his artificial legs broke in Argentina he would not give up but set out on one leg to climb a mountain more than a thousand feet higher than Mont Blanc, the highest of the Alps.".
