Two mountain rescue organizations-one near Seattle, Washington, the other in Tyrol, Austria-are linked by a surprising connection. Take a journey with historian Mark S. Weiner from America to Austria and back again as he considers the origins and meaning of their work. Both groups have grown from a strong sense of place ... because before you can save a stranger, you first must love your home.
