In good condition - ex library - has markings from use - due to differing weights in books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.At 29,028 feet, Mount Everest is the world's highest, most challenging mountain, looming in our imagination as a monument to the impossible; for every three climbers who reach its elusive summit, one dies trying. But for one moment in 1988, Stacy Allison stood alone on this mythic peak - the only spot on Earth where she couldn't climb any higher. At that moment, Allison became the first American woman ever to reach the summit of Everest.Stacy Allison is America's premier female climber, a woman of many triumphs, both on the mountain and off. Beyond the Limits is the tale of her journey upward. It is a thrilling account about breaking through the barriers of a traditional male domain, and a moving personal story about the struggle out of the trap of domestic violence - of how she summoned the same spirit and courage that brought her to the top of the world to finally walk out…

In good condition - ex library - markings from use - due to differing weights in books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.One of the greatest golfers of the twentieth century - ranked number one in the world for a record number of weeks - Nick Faldo has come to embody the very essence of the successful, competitive international sportsman.Faldo was a teenager when he was taken by the full majesty of golf while watching the 1971 U.S. Masters in Augusta on television. He was inspired by Jack Nicklaus, then at the height of his power, and within five years of taking up the game Faldo had outgrown the amateur circuit to become a tournament professional himself.His single-minded search for perfection drove him through a period when he was struggling with his game. He rebuilt his swing and his confidence to go on to win golf's most coveted title: the 1987 Open Championship at Muirfield. Since then he has continued to capture many of the world's most prestigious titles, including two more Open Championships…

Description:
In good condition - has markings from use - due to differing weights in books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.Fatty - The strife and times of Paul Vautin is the most explosive book about rugby league since King Wally. It is also the funniest; a rollicking saga which tracks the many highs (and lows) which punctuated a career of football's famous redhead.In characteristic fashion Vautin goes unflinchingly straight up the middle, trampling on toes, and scattering football's sacred cows in all directions. The book is full of revelations - of drugs in football, the inside story of his painful exit from Manly, the dramas at Jack Gibson's Easts, and much more. It provides an enthralling and riotous overview of rugby league's most colourful decade.
