Mountain Climbers 2

Malky Feig is poignant. And sensitive. And discerning. And totally clued in to what makes people... people. And her writing soars and like an eagle's wings carries us along to new heights.

In Mountain Climbers 2 this beloved columnist and bestselling author of Mirrors and Windows and Mountain Climbers brings us an original and wonderous selection of true stories of people - and the mountains that they have climbed.

Malky Feig's heroes and heroines don't use rappelling equipment, they don't own climbing gear, helmets or slacklines. What they use to climb and conquer their personal mountains - their challenges, some day-to-day, others wildly dramatic and unusual - are faith, perseverance, optimism, and courage. When facing the daunting challenges of life, they search for solutions and discover deep within themselves a strength and a vision that they never knew they possessed.

Every one of these stories is fascinating, a penetrating look into the lives and inner worlds of people unique in their circumstances, united in their determination to succeed in the face of challenge. But more: these stories are a beacon of light to each of us as we rise above adversity and emerge victorious in our individual quest for growth.
