Bear Grylls: Two All-Action Adventures

A collection combining two of Bear Grylls’ most exciting adventures – ‘Facing Up’ and ‘Facing the Frozen Ocean’. At extreme altitude youth holds no advantage over experience, and it is generally acknowledged that younger climbers have more difficulty coping with the adverse effects of mountaineering. Nevertheless, only two years after breaking his back in a free-fall parachuting accident, Bear Grylls overcame severe weather conditions, fatigue, dehydration and a last minute illness to stand on top of the world’s highest mountain. ‘Facing Up’ is the story of his adventure, his courage and humour, his friendship and faith.
