Francis Slakey: To the Highest Peaks and Beyond
Thursday, May 17 at 6 pm
Georgetown Professor Francis Slakey (To the Last Breath) journeys to the most extreme points on Earthand deep inside the human psyche. Before he decided to climb the highest mountain on every continent and surf every ocean, Slakey was, basically, detached. But as his travels veered off course, he was ambushed by guerillas, threatened by a storm in Antarctica, and confronted by a fatal decision on Everestand every escape from death brought him closer to life, challenging his fiercely held beliefs and offering insight into our relation to Earth and one another. Presented by Town Hall, with University Book Store.
