Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer

Jon Krakauer's acclaimed account of a disastrous expedition on Mt Everest.

[Krakauer] has produced a narrative that is both meticulously researched and deftly constructed-- Alastair Scott * New York Times Book Review *
This is a great book, among the best ever on mountaineering. Gracefully and efficiently written, carefully researched, and actually lived by its narrator. * Washington Post *
Into Thin Air ranks among the great adventure books of all time. * Wall Street Journal *
A harrowing tale of the perils of high-altitude climbing, a story of bad luck and worse judgment and of heartbreaking heroism. * People *
Krakauer is an extremely gifted storyteller as well as a relentlessly honest and even-handed journalist, the story is riveting and wonderfully complex in its own right . . .To call the book an adventure saga seems not to recognize that it is also a deeply thoughtful and finely wrought philosophical examination of the self. * Elle *
