Left for Dead: My Journey Home from Everest
by Beck Weathers
I very quickly read the first half of this book. I was very interested in the author's experiences on Everest, and felt like even though this story has been told many, many times, it was cool to get this man's singular perspective. I even liked throughout the first half hearing about the difficulties Beck and his family had due to his depression and his attempt to battle his depression with mountain-climbing. But as we entered Part Two of the book, the story took a huge turn into his marital problems, and essentially became an autobiography, starting with childhood and into his post-Everest years. I ended up feeling deceived by the title of the book, and did not get out of it what I was looking for.
