Sixty Meters to Anywhere

De: Brendan Leonard

Narrado por: Brian Hansbury

When Brendan Leonard moved to the West at age 23, he was a mess. He had a tenuous grip on sobriety, only six months after his last drink had landed him in yet another jail cell. It was the final mistake in a long list that included multiple arrests, wrecked cars, broken bones, fistfights, and ruined relationships.

In Montana, he took his first steps into the Rocky Mountains, unwittingly beginning a decade-long obsession with climbing and a journey that would take him all over the West and Europe. Told with unflinching honesty and vulnerability, Sixty Meters to Anywhere is the memoir of a barstool storyteller who left the bar and found adventure, redemption, and a life that almost never happened.

Great book

I really love how the outdoors opened up for a perfect life.
I love real life stories.

great listen

really enjoyed this journey of a book. thank you for sharing your life with the readers.

Tale of sobriety and climbing

I didn't personally connect with the story, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Well written, well performed. It's hard to call the book "enjoyable" as the subject matter was often very difficult, but it was a quick and interesting read. You can tell Brendan Leonard is genuine in his writing.

Redemption thru climbing

Young alcoholic stays sober and finds new life beyond drinking through climbing. He learns to appreciate struggles and hard won victories. He realizes his personal accomplishments led to a satisfying life.

can't get past the inhalations

the story is fine, the narrators constant inhalations which are incredibly audible are very distracting to me. you may not find it annoying, however I do suggest that you listen to the sample first before purchasing this book it may be more enjoyable to read it with your eyes instead of listening to it.....
