Summary: Remarkable story of hope
Comment: This memorable book is the definitve profile of courage. It tells the story of Jill Kinmont, a talented downhill skier whose Olympic success was imminent until a terrible fall in Utah rendered her a quadriplegic. But the true success of this book lies not with the representation of Jill Kinmont as a tragic heroine, but with the portrayal of her as someone whose commitment, dedication, drive, and determination have enabled her to succeed at life, despite the tremendous obstacles she has faced. Her skiing ability is legendary, but it is as a person she stands tall. Her story proves beyond all doubt than when our bodies are at their weakest our spirits are at their strongest.

This is an amazing and memorable piece of work and will be cherished by those who believe in the immortality and infallibility of the human spirit.

Rating: 4
Summary: A little bit boring
Comment: This book is more like an novel than a biography, and it is too long! However, you will find a very brave Jill Kinmont. Her spirit has never end. She kept on fighting and never gave up.

Rating: 5
Summary: I Loved It! 1
Comment: This was one of the best books I ever read. It was inspirational, funny, and one of those books you can't put down. It showed me that there is nothing that can stand in your way if you are determined. I have seen both of the movies and read and reread this book a million times. I urge you to read this book!
