Krátky popis
Though it remains by far the world's most famous mountain, in
recent years Everest's reputation has changed radically, with long
queues of climbers on the Lhotse Face, lurid tales of frozen
corpses and piles of high altitude trash. It wasn't always like
this though. Once Everest was remote and inaccessible, a mysterious
place, where only the bravest and most heroic dared to tread.The
first attempt on Everest in 1922 by George Leigh Mallory and a
British team is an extraordinary story full of controversy, drama
and incident, populated by a set of larger than life characters
straight out of Boys Own and Indiana Jones. The expedition ended in
tragedy when, on their third bid for the top, Mallory's party was
hit by an avalanche that left seven men dead. Using diaries,
letters, published and unpublished accounts, Mick Conefrey creates
a rich character driven narrative, exploring the motivations and
private dramas of key individuals and detailing the back room
politics and bitter rivalries that lay behind this epic adventure.
