New Releases by Bear Grylls

The incredible true story of a Galilean stonemason who changed the course of the world forever, beautifully told through the eyewitness accounts of those who knew him best. This real-life story will never leave you. He lived and died over 2,000 years ago, fulfilling expectations that existed long before his birth, mystically foretold by astrologers for hundreds of years-yet the rulers of his day dreaded his coming. This humble builder-teacher became a magnet for the poor and down trodden, a symbol of love and mercy, who transformed the lives and restored the health and purpose in all who encountered him. The local elite and governing rulers eventually tortured him and put him to death in the most violent and public of ways. Yet that was only the beginning ... In the years since, billions of people have dedicated their lives to this man and have testified to his divinity and truth. To others, he is little more than a rebel who was killed by one of the most brutal empires in human history. How we each respond to this story dictates the course of our lives. And it all rests on the great mystery that occurred at the end of his life-a supernatural event that he had predicted with utter clarity. Did this humble stonemason tell the truth? Could one man really be the focal point of the universe? From the #1 international bestselling author of Mud, Sweat, and Tears and the face of adventure himself, Bear Grylls, this story will prepare you to make up your own mind. But wherever your journey takes you, this is arguably The Greatest Story Ever Told.

Bear Grylls új könyve egy egész évre elegendő tanácsot ad ahhoz, hogy szembenézzünk bármilyen nehézséggel, amit az élet elénk sodor. A vadon törvényei és a Sose add fel! című könyvek szerzője saját túlélési tapasztalataiból, valamint sportolók, felfedezők

In 1996, a twenty-three-year-old soldier in the British Army was flying over an African desert on a routine parachute jump. He had a lot to look forward to-a long career ahead of him in the army, a beautiful girlfriend back home. But those dreams were cut short when his parachute failed to open at eleven thousand feet. He had cracked three vertebrae and come within a fraction of severing his spinal cord. A grueling eight months of physical therapy followed. Bear had to retrain his muscles to do all of the things we take for granted-how to sit, stand, walk, even breathe. Eighteen months after his accident he overcame incredible odds to reach the peak of Everest. THE KID WHO CLIMBED EVEREST is a tale of courage and determination. Bear''s quest for funding for his expedition, his seventy days on Everest''s southeast face, and a narrow brush with death after a fall into a crevasse at nineteen thousand feet, make the story an essential read for anyone who''s ever had a dream and made it come true.

Whoever you are it will help you step up, speak up, skill up and dream big. Grab life with both hands, never give up and give life you your best shot with Do Your Best: How To Be a Scout.

Sir Ranulph Fiennes has travelled to the most dangerous and inaccessible places on Earth, almost died countless times, lost nearly half his fingers to frostbite, raised millions of pounds for charity and been awarded a polar medal and an OBE. He has been an elite soldier, an athlete, a mountaineer, an explorer, a bestselling author and nearly replaced Sean Connery as James Bond. In his bestselling autobiography, Mad, Bad & Dangerous to Know, he describes how he led expeditions all over the world and became the first person to travel to both Poles on land. He tells of how he discovered the lost city of Ubar in Oman and attempted to walk solo and unsupported to the North Pole - the expedition that cost him several fingers, and very nearly his life. And now the extraordinary life story of the world''s greatest living explorer is re-published to celebrate his 75th birthday, with two new chapters to bring his story up to date - telling of more mountains climbed, including his ascent to the top of Mount Everest, and even more extraordinary and risky adventures.
