DOWSWELL, Paul

True everest adventures / Paul Dowswell - England : Usborne Publishing Ltd, 2002 - 144 p.

Book about the world's tallest mountain where it has held a special fascination for climbers ever since it was first discovered 150 years ago. Since then, over a thousand men and women have stood triumphant on its tiny summit. But the frozen bodies that litter its dizzy slopes tell another tale of tragedy, misfortune and reckless ambition.
