Description
A classic of mountaineering literature, re-issued for the 70th anniversary of the first ascent of Mount Everest.
'A story of passion, hardship and endurance' - Reinhold Messner
Touching My Father's Soul recounts Tenzing's son, Jamling Norgay's treacherous climb to the world's most forbidding summit. As famously retold in Krakauer's Into This Air, the 1996 IMAX climbing expedition collided with tragedy. Alongside the story of his own ascent, Jamling tells the story of his father's historic climb. As Jamling's climb unfolds so too does his inner journey. His desire to finally stand alongside his father's soul on the summit of Everest is realised, as is an understanding of his family's Sherpa history and a realisation of the power and significance of the Himalayas.
Beautifully repackaged for this new paperback edition, this is a classic.
