Everest: The West Ridge

Author(s): Hornbein, Thomas F.

Copyright: 2005, US
Specifications: rep, 8vo, pp.x, 181, 73 color photos, wraps

The 1963 expedition, led by Dyhrenfurth, placed the first Americans on the summit and made the first traverse -- up the West Ridge and down the South Col route. A mountaineering milestone. This edition has some photos not included in the original that are more oriented towards the climb itself, a new preface by Hornbein and a forward by Doug Scott. Still a classic book! Selected by National Geographic Adventure as one of the 100 Best Adventure Books of All Time.
