Published in association with the Royal Geographic Society, Alpine Club and Everest Foundation, this is the official publication celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the first ascent of Everest in 1953. A totally engrossing history, this book uses rare photography and excellent storytelling to bring you the dangers and triumphs of climbing Everest. The book puts the first successful ascent into context – detailing the adventures and deaths on the north face pre World War II, and the planning after the war that was nearly curtailed by a Swiss expedition in 1952. Written by a member of the original Hunt team – George Band (who went on to climb the lower but much harder peak Kangchenjunga and has been more closely associated with mountaineering than any other team member) – the book contains details, photographs and material donated by team members and the RGS, much of which has remained unpublished.
