A moving portrait of grace and strength, Climb Against the Odds celebrates women with breast cancer who have joined The Breast Cancer Fund in one of their awareness-raising mountain climbs: Aconcagua (23,000 ft.), McKinley (20,300 ft.), and Fuji (12,389 ft.). Weaving together text and photographs of the climbs, journalist Mary Pappenfuss brings us on an unforgettable journey through mountains metaphoric and real. With riveting interviews, joyful photographs, resources, and information about the struggle against breast cancer, this is a tribute to remarkable women and an affirmation of life.
