Description ▲
For more than 80 years Mount Everest has been the inhospitable and often deadly stage for human drama. Three events stand out: The disappearance of Mallory and Irvine in 1924, the first ascent in 1953 by Hillary and Tensing, and the 1996 disaster. Together these make up the trilogy of mystery, triumph and tragedy explored in this book by writer and sometime climber, Peter Sherwood.
