True Grit
Summary
"True Grit" er en samling af ekstraordinære autentiske fortællinger om mennesker, der nægtede at give op og præsterede at overleve ekstreme situationer mod alle odds. Vi hører om den amerikanske bombepilot Louis Zamperini, der overlevede 47 dage strandet midt på havet ved at dræbe og spise de hajer, der var kommet til for at æde ham, og drikke blod fra albatrosser og efter sin utrolige overlevelse blev fanget og smidt i en japansk krigsfangelejr, hvor han måtte udholde ekstrem tortur i årevis. Bear Grylls fortæller også om den amerikanske navy seal Marcus Luttrell, der holdt et helt Taleban-regiment på afstand egenhændigt, mens han slæbte sin gennemhullede og blødende krop gennem Afghanistans bjerge. De soldater, modstandsfolk, opdagelsesrejsende og eventyrere, Bear Grylls fortæller om, har ikke alene deres mod og ukuelighed til fælles: Deres oplevelser og præstationer har også inspireret Bear Grylls gennem hele hans liv. Edward Michael "Bear" Grylls (f. 1974) er en britisk eventyrer, forfatter og tv-vært. Bear Grylls er kendt for sine mange overlevelsesture og blev som 23-årig den yngste englænder til at bestige Mount Everest. Efterfølgende har Bear Grylls krydset Nordatlanterhavet i en gummibåd, og i 2008 besteg han nogle af Antarktis' uudforskede bjerge for at samle penge ind til velgørenhed og for at promovere alternativ energi. Bear Grylls har skrevet en række bøger om overlevelse og står bag populære tv-programmer om, hvordan man overlever i det fri.

Summary
"When you’re in the middle of the adventure, you just have to live it. When you’re on an expedition, you put your head down and battle through. Storytelling happens after the finish line... now that time has come [and] Julia can tell her story. The full story." (From the foreword by Bear Grylls.) An incredible account of one woman’s record-breaking row across the Atlantic. Thirty-two-year-old Julia Immonen and four other women take on a challenge completed by fewer people than have climbed Mount Everest or gone into space: row 3000 miles, unaided, from the Canary Islands to Barbados. Row for Freedom chronicles that dramatic journey, detailing the grueling, peril-filled crossing, which broke two world records, as it weaves together Julia’s search for hope and purpose against a background of relationships scarred by violence. As Julia’s physical and emotional treks unfold, you also learn about the plight of the 30 million victims of the modern-day slave trade that serves as the motivation for her row. Be inspired by Julia’s self-discovery and her team’s triumph in one of the most formidable physical quests ever undertaken.
