Book
Total copies: 1
In January 2015, Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson achieved the 'impossible'. Over three weeks they made their way up the forbidding, 3000-foot-high south-west face of El Capitan. It was a climb that Caldwell, after losing a finger in a domestic accident, had been told he had no hope of achieving. Much more than an account of a single, monumental climb, 'Push' looks set to join the classics of the genre.
