Near the Borderline : Coming of Age (and Then Some) on the Northern Frontier

Sport biography meets psychological mystery in this revealing memoir about the early days of hang-gliding and a brother's uncharted illness. An aspiring aviator introduces ski-flying at a mountain resort in Maine and goes on to compete in the first world hang-gliding championships in the Austrian Alps. After an extended gliding tour of the western states, he returns east to spend a dark winter of the soul in an isolated cabin in the Thousand Islands, where a troubled family history centered on his brother's combative personality eventually catches up with him.
