Book Description 243 x 216 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. 205 + (i), incl. index; profusely illustrated in full colour. Small crease to bottom fore-edges of cover. Very good condition. "On 6th June 1924, George Mallory and Andrew 'Sandy' Irvine attempted to make history by setting out on a bid to reach the summit of Everest and be the first men ever to stand on the peak of the world's highest mountain. When last seen by Noel Odell, who was climbing in support, they seemed to be within 800 feet of the summit. They were never seen again. . Seventy-five years later, in April 1999, the Mallory and Irvine Research Expedition team set off to retrace the steps of the 1924 Expedition. . On 1st May 1999, to the astonishment of the world, they made a dramatic discovery when they came across the remains of George Mallory. GHOSTS OF EVEREST is the brilliantly researched, lucidly written account of two expeditions. From early preparations to day-to-day, blow-by-blow events, it weaves through time bringing together past and present to create a seamless adventure narrative that captures the voices and the action as it unfolds on the mountain.".

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Good. 208 pages. Cover creased and worn and fadedDid Mallory and I rvine reach Everest's summit 30 years before Hillary and Tenzing? Until now, clues about what happened to these two Everest pionee rs had been scant and misleading. Until now, no one has known whe ther they reached the summit. Until now, no one has known where o r how they perished. This is a detective story of the first ord er. It is the story not just of Mallory and Irvine's last climb, but of the team of climbers and researchers who, together, found the body of perhaps Britain's greatest mountaineer and uncovered the startling story he had waited so long to reveal. Written by t he three key members of the team, and incorporating extensive int erviews with other team members, GHOSTS OF EVEREST is the dramati c unfolding of both the 1999 and 1924 expeditions, woven together into a compelling narrative. This book is the definitive accou nt and has become an instant classic. Seller Inventory # 2451b
