For a mountaineer there is only on aim - to get the top, to reach that glittering summit. The supreme spires are his or hers to conquer, but is their destiny at the mercy of the clouds? Early climbers on Everest in the 1920s argued incessantly about the use of oxygen on the mountain. Was it sporting or was it cheating? Today aids come in all forms- better equipment, knowledge and communications technology - but few climbers would openly suggest that any modern device is anything other than an additional source of help in achieving their goal. This book tells the extraordinary story of one such wizard by the author who climbed Everest more than twenty times from his wheelchair in Chamonix.
