OPIS
Deft, absorbing and informative
Times Literary Supplement
Informative, essential reading on women's mountaineering wrapped within a profoundly personal memoir. There is joy amid the anger and hurt Rachel conveys on her journey of personal recovery through recovering the stories of her newfound outdoors foremothers. I'm sure many women will feel seen in these pages. The peaks of joy, the lessons learned during the lows, and the rallying cry for our right to feel safe outdoors will stay with me
Francesca Donovan, The Great Outdoors Magazine
A highly original work… Quietly angry and fiercely feminist, it’s the book I’ve been encouraging everyone to read
Critic, *Books of the Year*
Rachel Hewitt's writing is always elegant, fierce, intelligent and truthful. No one writes as well as she does about endurance - and survival
