Publisher's Summary
Includes two new chapters on Alex Honnold's free solo ascent of the iconic 3,000-foot El Capitan in Yosemite National Park
On June 3rd, 2017, Alex Honnold became the first person to free solo Yosemite's El Capitan - to scale the wall without rope, a partner, or any protective gear - completing what was described as "the greatest feat of pure rock climbing in the history of the sport" (National Geographic) and "one of the great athletic feats of any kind, ever" (New York Times). Already one of the most famous adventure athletes in the world, Honnold has now been hailed as "the greatest climber of all time" (Vertical magazine).
Alone on the Wall recounts the most astonishing achievements of Honnold's extraordinary life and career, brimming with lessons on living fearlessly, taking risks, and maintaining focus even in the face of extreme danger. Now Honnold tells, for the first time and in his own words, the story of his three hours and 56 minutes on the sheer face of El Cap, which Outside called "the moon landing of free soloing.... A generation-defining climb. Bad ass and beyond words.... One of the pinnacle sporting moments of all time."

Great voice of Narrator
Only an hour in and such a great story narrated by such a nice voice.
Perfect for commuting home in traffic as I use it.
Highly recommend.

Boring
Was expecting much more. Story tellers nearly put me to sleep while driving so that says enough. Just focus on the amazing film Alex was involved in.

Emotionless
There felt like there was no emotion in the story as compared to Tommy's "The Push".
Kinda wish Alex would have read it himself, i feel the story would have drawn you in so much more.
A good listen but it was definitely missing depth.
