Resumen del libro
In the only book to tell the real story of Everest 1953, Mick Conefrey reveals that what has gone down in history as a supremely well-planned attempt was in fact beset by crises - both on and off the mountain. To succeed, team leader Colonel John Hunt and his team had to draw on unimaginable skill and determination, as well as sheer British ingenuity.
Everest 1953 is not only a gripping true story of courage and adventure, but a long-overdue tribute to an under-appreciated British triumph. Revealing the answers to long-enduring controversies - did Tenzing or Hillary actually reach the top first? - and exploring the legacy of this great ascent, it is the perfect way to commemorate the year of the London Olympics.
