Publisher's Summary
Bear Grylls is a man who has always sought the ultimate in adventure. Growing up on the Isle of Wight, he was taught by his father to sail and climb at an early age. As a teenager he found identity and purpose through both mountaineering and martial arts, which led the young adventurer to the foothills of the mighty Himalaya and a grandmaster's karate training camp in Japan. On returning home, he embarked upon the notoriously gruelling selection course for the British Special Forces to join 21 SAS - a journey that was to push him to the very limits of physical and mental endurance. Then, in a horrific free-fall parachuting accident, Bear broke his back in three places. It was touch and go whether he would ever walk again. However, only eighteen months later Bear became one of the youngest ever climbers to scale Everest, aged only 23. But this was just the beginning of his many extraordinary adventures . . .Known and admired by millions, Bear Grylls has survived where few would dare to go. Now, for the first time, Bear tells the story of his action-packed life.
Gripping, moving and wildly exhilarating, Mud, Sweat and Tears is a must-read for adrenalin junkies and armchair adventurers alike. Narrated by Tom Patrick Stephens, who Bear approved himself (since he was off adventuring!)

Humble and full of adventure
This book is a great listen. Read really well, it almost sounds like Bear himself. It you like Bear Grylls, it will inspire you to make the most of everything, as well as put you on the edge of your seat asking, "how's he going to get out of this one?"

Daring, captivating and heartfelt
Grylls' autobiography is to be enjoyer by more than just the naturally adventurous or those inclined towards outdoors and extreme sport. through his adventures, the reader enjoys humble yet astute observations on life, relationships and how to live with meaning. A great read/listen.

excellent
it probably could have done with a bit of editing as it was a bit repetitive but still excellent and suitable for children
