A memoir you shall not forget.
Forget Me Not is a beautiful flower found in Montana. It is also the title of a beautiful memoir of beautiful lives forever intertwined: husband, wife, friends, family and love. It is an autobiography of one of America's premier mountaineers, a memoir of the love of his wife and children, and a story about the love of friends and family for one who has died. Normally this mix of goals would be impossible in a book or at least leave many parts behind. But Jennifer Lowe-Anker in Forget Me Not has accomplished all these goals and more.

Alex Lowe was a remarkable man. His exploits on rock, ice and snow are well known throughout the climbing community. What Jennifer brings out is the other side of Alex few knew. She quotes liberally from his letters to her and their children while he was on expeditions showing a brilliant mind with a wonderful communication skill as well as a deep love for the family he leaves behind.

As a friend, lover and wife of Alex Lowe for 18 years she knew him better and than anyone. She shares that love and intimate knowledge of his feats, his drive and his excitement with all of us in her book. She also shares herself. In what is probably one of the most open books about the life and the death of a husband and father. This book is truly remarkable.

This book deserves the awards it has garnered from the National Outdoor Book Awards. More importantly this book deserves a place on your book shelf as it finds a place in your heart.
