Freedom Climbers by Bernadette McDonald

Book discussion with the author Bernadette McDonald. The event is co-sponsored by The Jan Karski Institute for Tolerance and Dialog.

In a story of beating the odds, Bernadette McDonald writes of triumph despite the political oppression faced by Polish climbers during the reign of the Iron Curtain.  Undeterred, these "freedom climbers" ruled the Himalaya and forever changed the face of alpinism.
