About the Book

Lessons From The Cave is an autobiographical book of essays and a poem written over several years about the author's life as a skier, climber, writer and wanderer through the mountains of the world. It was published when the author was 83 years old and reflects those life experiences through lenses of gratitude, regret, pain, joy, fear, disappointment, determination (and lapses of will), lessons learned and not learned, loneliness and love.
