The Way Out: A True Story of Ruin and Survival

The Way Out: A True Story of Ruin and Survival

Craig Childs
Childs lost his home and his marriage and walked into the Grand Canyon in winter. A book about hitting bottom in the most literal landscape for it. Raw, unsparing, and ultimately about the possibility of starting over.
