Dane's Review: Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer


Honestly non-fiction is your friend. Read it! It sharpens the mind like a whetstone.
Into Thin Air is a book of accounts, previous goings on, summits, treks, and historical achievements of the tallest peak worldwide. No, not the mountains of peas kids won't eat, EVEREST. The book is brutally real, written by a news writer who went on the 1996 Everest "Disaster", where many met their end to unpredictable winds. However, it's a great read to anyone interested or just a lover of climbing or misery. Either way it's informative and KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!
