A story of passion, hardship and endurance Reinhold MessnerThere is much to marvel at in these pages. It taught me a great deal... Enthralling Jon Krakauer, bestselling author of Into Thin AirIn this gripping and inspirational book, Jamling Norgay interweaves the story of his Everest summit during the infamously deadly 1996 season with the first real account of his father Tenzing Norgays historic first ascent with Edmund Hillary in 1953. For Jamling, the climb was a journey of danger and of discovery. Discovery of the spiritual heritage of the Sherpa tradition, of his fathers past and of the obsession that makes men and women risk their lives to summit the tallest peak on earth.A classic of mountaineering literature reissued for the 70th anniversary of the first ascent of Everest, this is a compelling and emotional account of two unbelievable ascents, and of the unique relationship between a father and son.
