From the publisher:
At 27, when Melissa Arnot Reid accepted a tank of oxygen just short of the summit of Mt. Everest, she felt ravaged by defeat. Driven by a relentless, lifelong quest to prove to herself, her family, and the world that she was enough, she had set herself an incredible goal—to become the first American woman to summit Everest without oxygen. The failure battered her spirit and left her struggling to keep her tenuous grip on hope.
In the candid and adventurous spirit of Cheryl Strayed's Wild, Enough is a story of a life in which the most dangerous mountain faces became a refuge—until suddenly they, too, no longer seemed safe. At its core, this book is a story that grapples with universal themes, such as healing from trauma and learning to overcome our own personal demons.
Author Melissa Arnot Reid has gained acclaim as the only woman to summit Everest without oxygen. It was her sixth summit of the highest ground on earth, cementing her place in mountaineering history.
