Summary:
In this first-person account, former Olympian Eric LeMarque recounts a harrowing tale of survival--of eight days in the frozen wilderness, of losing his legs to frostbite, and coming face-to-face with death. But Eric's ordeal on the mountain was only part of his struggle for survival--as he reveals, with startling candor, an even more harrowing and inspiring tale of fame and addiction, healing and triumph.--From publisher description.
Now an inspirational major motion picture starring Josh Hartnett and Mira Sorvino, Eric LeMarque's inspiring tale of fame and addiction, healing and triumph.
