To the Top of the World by Richard Sale
The year 2000 is the 50th anniversary of the climbing of the first 8000m peak. In the decade which followed that climb, all bar one of the world's 14 peaks over 8000m were climbed. This book presents the stories behind the conquest, plus descriptions of how they have been conquered since then.
