It’s not likely I’ll ever have the chance to see such a mountain, much less climb one. But Eric Alexander takes you there, and many other places, in his new book The Summit: Faith Beyond Everest’s Death Zone.

It’s an amazing journey, from the Himalayas to Mount Elbrus in Russia, to Mount Hood in New Zealand, to Pisco and Machu Pichu in Peru, to Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, to Mount Denali in Alaska, to Mount Aconcagua in Argentina, and back to the Himalayas, Alexander takes us around the world. He even tells stories of climbs in his home state of Colorado. Whew!

Honestly, it’s almost too much. By the end of the book, as amazing as these climbs are, I was ready to be finished reading it. I think it would have been much easier to read without all the extra locations added in.

However, Alexander keeps his faith at the forefront of it all. That was especially impressive.

All in all, it was an exciting tale, one that I’m glad that I read. I suggest you take it in. In fact, you can win a copy of The Summit right here. I have the opportunity, thanks to New Leaf Press, to give away a copy. All you have to do is comment on that post, and tweet or post the details and a link on Twitter or FaceBook.
