Praise
“I was totally compelled by this . . . the writing is strong; in the tradition of Junger, Langwiesche, Krakauer . . . with a dash of Hunter S. Thompson.” —Jon Winokur, author of bestselling memoirs The Garner Files and But Enough About Me
A vivid book guaranteed to make readers more aware of what it takes to get that cellphone signal into his or her hand, for better or worse.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Delaney’s descriptions of working on broadcast towers document fatigue (90-hour weeks) and fear (of gravity’s heartlessness) and reverberate with bravado . . . Delaney’s book promotes appreciation for those who risk their lives so we can get a cell-phone signal, and it just might provoke some acrophobia, too.” —Booklist
