Biographical, Blaine Langberg, Fiction, Fiction - General, Humorous, Nature & the Environment, PaperbackMarried and middle-aged Jacob Silverstein appears to have everything he wants
in life: his health, a loving family, and a successful orthodontic practice. But when
his best friend invites him to climb Mt. Whitney in California, Jacob's old demons
resurface. Fighting his anxiety and lack of self-confidence, he sets out on
the physically and emotionally challenging hike up the tallest mountain
in the contiguous United States. As Jacob tries to conquer this punishing
14,500-foot climb, he finds the greatest struggle is defeating the voice
of his fatalistic inner child.
Conquering Whitney: A Mountain of Misadventure is a rollicking mix of travel
narrative, humor, and a search for self-discovery. Jacob's inspirational
odyssey is set against a backdrop of breathtaking scenery, burgeoning
friendships, raving raptors, and an epic hunt for ice cream sandwiches-
truly something to satisfy every appetite!
