The story of the catastrophic 1996 ascent of Mt. Everest. I love Krakauer. This story is compelling and tragic. I'd read
Into The Wild, and after reading this I bought
Under the Banner of Heaven and
Where Men Win Glory. What I'm trying to say is that I'm making quite a bit of throwing-around money.
I forgot to mention that this is a follow-up to SC's post about Into Thin Air.
