Sobre este artículo
London: HarperCollins, 2003. Hardcover. Near fine/Near fine. Second printing. Published in association with the Royal Geographic Society, Alpine Club, and Mount Everest Foundation, this is the official publication celebrating the 50th anniversary of the first ascent of Everest in 1953. It 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), the book contains details, photographs, and material donated by team members and the RGS. Signed by Band on the half-title. Quarto. Original glossy boards. Light wear along the bottom edge of the boards. The dust jacket is a trifle sun faded along the spine; else near fine.
