description: In three books, Everest the Hard Way (1976), Everest South-West Face (1973) and Everest the Unclimbed Ridge (written with Charles Clarke in1983), Chris Bonington demonstrated how, in the years after John Hunt's expedition made the first ascent of Everest, climbers chose different routes to reach the same pinnacle. Bonington himself has taken part in nineteen Himalayan expeditions. Here, for the first time, these classic, first-hand accounts are brought together in one omnibus volume, with photographs drawn from his own archive of photographs and those of other climbers.
