The Rage: Reflections on Risk

Can$19.95

Steve De Maio

Risk-taker Steve De Maio explores risk in this eclectic collection of climbing essays and poetry written over a 20-year period. Starting with the “Hard Years” of his youth when he was out of work and moving through to the present, De Maio’s stories can be sombre, humorous or just plain outrageous. Yet throughout this collection, the author examines the theme of risk: what it is, how it can be managed and how his attitude toward it has changed over time.

STEVE DE MAIO has been a risk-taker for most of his life, exhibiting an early penchant for tree climbing, aerial-rope and bike stunts before the age of 10. He began rock climbing at age 14 and since then has made over 150 first ascents in North America, some of which have never been repeated.
