- Abstract
- Born and raised in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Margo Talbot grew up with a distant mother who “ruled the household with her eyes”; a father who opted to spend much of his time away from home; and four siblings struggling to deal with their particular domestic situation. As a result of her family’s dysfunction and her own growing mental illness, young Margo rarely smiled, had difficulty connecting with others, and was plagued with a black wave of anger and sadness that overshadowed much of the world around her. In time, drugs, alcohol, sex, and violence became her primary ways to connect with herself and others. From the depths of suicidal depression and a conversation with Death, Talbot eventually found solace and redemption in both the healing power of nature and the glory of climbing frozen landscapes in some of the world’s most pristine and challenging environments. Heartbreaking, honest, energizing, and inspiring All That Glitters is a remarkable memoir that shines a fresh light of hope on mental illness.-- From back cover

- In the 1960s, California's Yosemite Valley was the center of the rock climbing universe. Young nonconformists -- many of them the finest rock climbers in the world -- channeled their energy toward the largely untouched walls and cracks. Soon climbers from around the globe were coming to Camp 4 -- gathering spot for the creators of the "Golden Age" of Yosemite climbing -- to see whgat all the fuss is about. -- From the back cover

- The book is a testament to three sons’ love for their parents, Ed and Dorothy. Ed and Dorothy were kind and caring people and raised their family with those values. This book is also a testament to a family’s love of community, the community of Banff National Park.I hope when you read this book, you’ll be immersed in a bygone era that includes the Second World, to the backcountry of Canada’s oldest national park. I hope you will see a way of life that can never be recreated in a place that is ever-changing but will always be home to Ed and Dorothy. (Edited down from Our Family Lines website)
