I can move only with the aid of barrels of anti-inflammatory gel, sticking plasters, and real ale anesthetic. Martin and I descend from hours of walking to the small town of Middleton-in-Teesdale.

In 1924, George Mallory and his climbing partner, Sandy Ervine, vanished into the mist high on Everest while making their attempt to be the first men to climb the world's highest mountain. They never returned from their assault on the mountain, and for decades, controversy has raged over their fate and the unanswered question as to whether they made it to the top. In 2014, John D Burns performed a one-man play about George Mallory and his attempt on the mountain. This book is an audio version of the play.

John Burns takes you on a journey of more than 40 years from the hills of Britain to adventures in the Rocky Mountains of the US and Canada. His love for the Scottish Highlands and his intimate knowledge of their wild glens and distant peaks means that this book will resonate with anyone whose heart lies in Scotland.
