| book description |

A classic of mountaineering literature, this is the story of the harrowing first ascent of the North Face of the Eiger, the most legendary and terrifying climb in history. Heinrich Harrer, author of â€˜Seven Years in Tibetâ€™ and one of the twentieth centuryâ€™s greatest mountaineers, was part of the team that finally conquered the Eigerâ€™s fearsome North Face in 1938. It was a landmark expedition that pitted the explorers against treacherous conditions and the limits of human endurance, and which many have since tried â€“ and failed â€“ to emulate. Armed with an intimate knowledge that comes only from first-hand experience of climbing the Eiger, Harrer gives a gripping account of physical daring and mental resilience. A new introduction by Joe Simpson, author of â€˜Touching the Voidâ€™, confirms the lasting relevance of this true adventure classic.
