In 1921 no European had stood within forty miles of Everest. This is the official account of the expedition that found the way in through Tibet, mapped the glaciers, and — in George Mallory’s own chapters — first looked up the North Col at a route that would kill him three years later.

The first Everest expedition, written by the men who made it. Download the free EPUB.
