As featured in Maclean's
EXTREME WEATHER Edition, Nov 6, 2012
“I love this book. It’s a riveting
story, intimately told with skill, deep humility, startling honesty,
and the kind of stark photographic recall most people only achieve
when they find themselves suddenly slapped within an inch of their
lives by death. Which is, of course, precisely what happened; and
that profound revelation is delivered intact throughout the course
of this beautiful, powerful work.”
-- John Skipp, bestselling author of Jake’s Wake
and The Light At The End
