Scranton, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.: W W Norton & Co Inc, 2007. First Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Very good blue hardcover. Very good blue color pictorial DJ. Light wear and tear to DJ. (2007), 8vo, [10], xi-xxii, [2], 3- 400pp. Shortlisted for Boardman Tasker Prize for Mountain Literature 2007. "In July 1967, seven young men--members of Joe Wilcox's twelve-man expedition--died on Mt. McKinley, North America's highest peak, stranded at 20,000 feet during a vicious Arctic storm. Ten days passed with no rescue attempt; the bodies were never recovered. And, for reasons that have remained cloudy, there was no proper official investigation. This book begins as a classic tale of men against nature, gambling--and losing--on one of the world's starkest and stormiest peaks. In lives lost, it was then history's third-worst mountaineering disaster--but elements of finger-pointing, incompetence, and coverup make this disaster unlike any other. Author Tabor draws on previously untapped sources, and consults not only mountaineers but also experts in disciplines including meteorology, forensics, and psychology. What results is the first full account of the tragedy that ended a golden age in mountaineering.--From publisher description"
