Reviews"In There and Back, Jimmy Chin tells the story of his remarkable life through a selection of breathtaking photos accompanied by passages of insightful text. The end result is an extraordinary work of art." --Jon Krakauer "Many of us will never risk our lives to see what Jimmy Chin does, but in these pages, his photography will transport you to the razor's edge, challenging your perceptions of what humans can achieve." --Brie Larson "Jimmy Chin is one of the most widely traveled and experienced adventure photographers on Earth, and this collection is an absolute tour de force. I read this book in a single sitting and finished feeling inspired to take on the world." --Alex Honnold "Jimmy's photography takes you on a journey to places few have ever visited. No one else is capable of capturing such beauty while hanging by a thread from a towering rock face or skiing down the legendary slopes of Mount Everest. It is a pleasure to finally have all his most iconic images in one volume. I can't wait for you to get lost in the poetry he has unearthed at the most extreme corners of our planet." --Paul Nicklen
