What could go wrong?\u003cbr\u003e Plenty.\u003cbr\u003e Stepping Off the Edge is the behind-the-scenes memoir of an American do-gooder who set off, in the late 1980s, for the remote hill country of the southern Philippines, fresh with ideals. Six years later, when she hiked back out for the last time, she had left the ideals far behind, along with most of her sanity. But she had stories.\u003cbr\u003e At the time, they were stories that couldn't be told. They didn't have the reverence and inspiration that encourages supporters; they didn't fulfill the mission dream. The humor might've been a little dark, and the events beyond belief. But they were the truth.\u003cbr\u003e And then, enough time passed to share them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deborah Tuhy Simmons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1942168837\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781942168836\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Compass Flower Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/04\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.58d","brand":"Deborah Tuhy Simmons","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125650747647,"sku":"9781942168836","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a1efbe73-11b7-4d2e-b49b-e62fa1d5040a.jpg?v=1687443891","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stepping-off-the-edge-deborah-tuhy-simmons-9781942168836","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
