Product Synopsis

Collection of published writings on the Everest by George Mallory, the man who may have been the first man to reach its top 29 years before Hillary. George Mallory belongs to a short but distinguished line of literary mountaineers such as Joe Simpson, Jon Krakauer and Edward Whymper, the conqueror of the Matterhorn. He answered the questioned 'Why climb Everest' with the dry put down 'Because it is there.' In this book his published writings on Everest are collected for the first time.
