He made not one, not two, but three intrepid assaults, some of which got quite a distance beyond Base Camp, and overcame many perilous circumstances along the way. The mountaineer Joe Simpson famously crawled for three days with a broken leg, but did he ever have to read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown while waiting for a weather window?

Le montagne esistono perché noi possiamo scalarle, possiamo camminarci, possiamo sciarci? Ha senso, in un ecosistema così fragile, perseguire un modello di sviluppo fondato sulla crescita, sull’aumento anno dopo anno di turisti e di impianti? Perché altre culture, dall’Himalaya alle Ande, hanno immaginato l’esistenza di montagne sacre, luoghi da cui l’uomo dovesse restare lontano? Cosa ci insegna questa idea di limite? Se sulle carte geografiche non esistono più spazi bianchi e inesplorati, in montagna non esistono più vette inviolate, in particolare sulle Alpi.

This gripping account of courage, achievement, and heartbreaking loss tells the story of Bonington's Boys, a band of climbers who reinvented mountaineering during the three decades after Everest's first ascent. The boyish, fanatically driven Chris Bonington's inner circle included a dozen of the most renowned climbers, who took increasingly terrible risks on now legendary expeditions to the world's most fearsome peaks, and paid an enormous price. Most of them died in the mountains, leaving behind the hardest question of all: Was it worth it?
