Book Review

Today, I am reviewing a book entitled "Rescuing Riley Saving Myself" written by Zak Anderegg.  This book begins with Anderegg out on a climbing excursion when he comes upon a dog trapped in a canyon.  Much of the book details how the author goes about getting the dog, who is at the point of dying of dehydration, out of the canyon.

While the author is going about rescuing the dog, he is reminded of the many occurrences of bullying that he faced growing up.  By rescuing the dog he would name Riley, Mr. Anderegg was able to come to terms with unpleasant experiences in his past.

This is an interesting book on two levels.  The dog rescue story is good, but the story that Mr. Anderegg relates about his own life is also very revealing and interesting.
