5-0 out of 5 stars Great book of mountaneering
I have enjoyed very much reading this book. That's why I award it with 5 stars, it is amongst my favourite books of mountaneering, with Lionel's Terray Conquerers of the useless.
5-0 out of 5 stars superb writing from the Golden Age of Alpinism
Since I first read this little classic, Edward Whymper's book on scrambling in the Alps has always been my favorite mountaineering book.Something about his style of writing makes one feel they have not only read a delightful tale, they have actually incorporated it into their own memory. His pencil etchings are so evocative, you can almost smell the brisk air of Zermatt and feel the weathered texture of the Swiss dwelling. You can once again experience the thoughts of trepidation and anticipation which accompany a good outing in the mountains. This is Victorian mountain writing at its very best, in an age before high technology and polarfleece added safety and comfort but put some palpable distance between you and the experience and blunted the directness of your perceptions and observations. I've spent many of my own happy hours scrambling in the Alps, but somehow Whymper makes it seem like I'm doing it anew.Sure, it's always interesting to read of the difficulties of Everest or the tales of hardship on Half Dome, but Whymper was among the first, and high technology and modern photography have not allowed us to better put you into the heart of the experience.

5-0 out of 5 stars What an amazing story!
I was glued to this book from the first page to the last! What a thriller and it is true! Truly one of Jack Olsen's finest works.

5-0 out of 5 stars attention getter
I bought this book last monday and started it that night,just couldnt put it down,keeped my on the edge of my seat and I couldnt wait to find out what happened next.I came away from this book with a better understanding of what drives men,at the risk of their own lives,to climb such mountains as the Eiger.Well done Mr,Olsen
4-0 out of 5 stars True-Crime Whodunnit on a Mountain
This is a fast-moving account of a true and avoidable mountaineering accident and the ensuing rescue efforts.The author holds back the real story about the apparent culprit (assuming there is one) until the very end.Fans of classic mountaineering literature written by technically experienced mountaineers will not find everything they're looking for here.Those looking for a good read will. ...
