I listened to Endurance by Alfred Lansing while winter hiking the southern 1000 miles of the AT. Several days and nights below freezing didn't seem so bad any more! They had unimaginable grit and determination. Truly a remarkable tale. I felt their vigor warm my bones, add strength to my legs. These are true stories of what is possible on the ragged edge of human survival. What can be overcome by sheer will. Our species has depths beyond our current understanding. We can endure.
