Between a Rock and a Hard Place by Aron Ralston
A mountaineer who survived a near-fatal accident by amputating his arm when it became trapped behind a boulder in Utah describes how he endured five days of hypothermia, dehydration, and hallucinations before managing his own rescue.Aron Ralston, a native of the Midwest, moved to Aspen, Colorado, after retiring from a career as a mechanical engineer at the age of twenty-six. Following his accident, he has finished his once-in-a-lifetime objective of solo climbing all fifty-nine Colorado peaks over 14,000 feet in the winter. Between a Rock and a Hard Place, his debut book, was a New York Times bestseller, and Danny Boyle adapted it into the huge feature picture 127 Hours. Aron now resides in Boulder, Colorado, with his infant daughter and four-year-old son. He continues to traverse the globe in search of adventure as well as to tell his story.
