Publisher's Note
In this elegant and exciting collection Andrew Todhunter, himself an extreme sportsman and the author of the critically acclaimed Fall of the Phantom Lord, takes readers along as men and women push themselves to their limits in the world’s riskiest sports.

In several of these essays Todhunter writes from personal experience, joining his subjects as they free fall from cliffs, wriggle through narrow underground crevices, and dive deep beneath the ice of a frozen lake. In these adrenaline-laced accounts of extreme sportsmanship, Todhunter captures not only the thrill of conquest but the deep pleasure of being someplace few others have gone as well.


Industry Reviews
"Todhunter is more than an empathetic observer of extreme pursuits; he is also a participant. Charmingly curious, he resists the urge to imbue his accounts with self-effacing nerdishness or cheap bravado. He doesn't suffer the usual subject envy, either. In this parallel universe of nerve-shattering challenges and nearly absurd physical confidence, it's a seller's market for heroes. Todhunter, thankfully, isn't buying."
New York Times - Louise Jarvis (12/10/2000)
