BOOKS
Read the Passion!

Here is a list of books on my shelf that I have enjoyed.

I enjoy reading about the adventures of others. This story about two women who take on the challenge of crossing Antarctica is an extreme adventure that not only fulfills the spirit of its participants but reaches beyond and touches the lives of many others.
I am a Lance fan. If you are a Lance fan, then you have already read this book. I bet you enjoyed it. If you are not a Lance fan, then you still might appreciate reading about one of the greatest athletes of all time.
This is an adventure, this is a challenge, this is exciting and this is a page turner. I found it hard to believe this story, when one considers today's ability to protect against the elements and then reads what Sir Ernest Shacketon and his crew went through to survive - unbelievable!
I am impressed by those among us that take on challenges. In this book, Dr. Jerri Nielsen describes her ordeals in "wintering over" at the South Pole. OK, that's enough of a challenge but what happens when you discover that you have cancer and you cannot get help and you must care for yourself. Read this story to find out.
