Mud, Sweat and Tears

The number-one bestseller, now available in paperback.

‘Well told, personable, fast-paced, and undoubtedly a
fascinating read’ Daily Telegraph

Gripping, moving and wildly exhilarating, Mud,
Sweat and Tears is a must-read for adrenalin junkies and armchair
adventurers alike.

Bear Grylls is a man who has always sought the ultimate
in adventure. Growing up on the Isle of Wight, he was taught by his father to
sail and climb at an early age. As a teenager he found identity and purpose
through both mountaineering and martial arts, which led the young adventurer
to the foothills of the mighty Himalaya and a grandmaster’s karate training
camp in Japan.

On returning home, he embarked upon the notoriously gruelling
selection course for the British Special Forces to join 21 SAS - a journey
that was to push him to the very limits of physical and mental endurance.

Then, in a horrific free-fall parachuting accident,
Bear broke his back in three places. It was touch and go whether he would
ever walk again. However, only eighteen months later Bear became one of the
youngest ever climbers to scale Everest, aged only twenty-three. But this was
just the beginning of his many extraordinary adventures …

Known
and admired by millions, Bear Grylls has survived where few would dare to go.
