To the last breath by Francis Slakey... a book review.



Having lost his mother to cancer as a kid, Slakey's life circumstances made him shut himself from people and relationships meant to him to be nothing more then something to fill evenings and boredom with. He became professor of Physics in Georgetown, US and lived giving mechanical lectures with his face turned away from students. However, he decides to scale highest peaks on each continent and surf all the oceans. Thus begins his journey full of adventures and anecdotes.
Francis Slakey's book, 'To the last breath' is an account of his self discovery over a period of twelve years as he scales peaks and surfs the oceans. A must read we give the book an 8 out of 10.
