Chris Bonington's Everest

'Chris Bonington's Everest is a powerful introduction to the world of mountaineering and a fitting tribute to a magnificent mountain and the heroic climbers who try to reach its summit. Backed up with solid accounts and stuning photography recounting seminal moments in the mountain's history, this is an epic read about the triumphs of a great man who stands as an icon of British mountaineering. Sir Chris, we salute you.'
