Erik Weihenmayer is the first and only blind person to summit Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth. Descending carefully, he and his team picked their way across deep crevasses and through the deadly Khumbu Icefall; when the mountain was finally behind him, Erik knew he was going to live. His expedition leader slapped him on the back and said something that would affect the course of Erik’s life: “Don’t make Everest the greatest thing you ever do.” No Barriers is Erik’s response to that challenge.

Sent blind soon after birth, David Hume stubbornly refused to live the limited life well-meaning elders and social norms expected. To date, that encompasses years in a blind institute, two marriages, grieving for two outstanding wives, founding recruiting firms, devising marketing techniques, facing business collapse, sailing ocean races, and through much of it, being the lead singer in popular bands. If you enjoy a short biography that inspires, saddens, cheers, and sticks in your memory, then don't put aside Blind Without Barriers.
