When David Mauro was in his forties, his life hit all-time low. With nothing to lose, he left every thing he knew behind and set out on an epic worldwide journey. For the subsequent seven years, Dave trudged throughout glaciers and frozen wastelands and thru dense, harmful forests. He communed with penguins and elephants, stored firm with cannibals and gunrunners, and spoke with the lifeless. And although he’d by no means been a climber, he ended up becoming a member of historical past’s brave few when he ascended into the clouds to face on the summit of Mt. Everest.

Drawn from Dave’s private diaries, The Altitude Journals is the poignant, inspiring, and endlessly thrilling true story of a exceptional midlife disaster. It’s an unforgettable story of 1 man who went to wonderful extremes to restore a shattered life–and how he regained the powers to like and forgive, and to imagine in himself as soon as once more.
