Mud, Sweat and Tears by Bear Grylls

[Jacqui]

I have to admit I love Bear and after reading his autobiography I love him even more. Fascinating stories of his life pepper this book and it is an exciting and uplifting read. There are clear experiences that shaped his life: childhood, SAS, Shara (his wife) and Everest that developed his character and defined who he is. His ability to survive difficult situations and remain positive and keep going by repeating mantras in his head and by relying on his faith in God to keep him safe was motivating and inspiring. I really enjoyed this book!
