Awesome book!!!! I first learned that "I would never ever want to climb Mt. Everest". I also learned how expensive, time consuming, dangerous, long, and truly exhausting climbing Everest would be. This book is a true account of 2 groups that summited on May 10, 1996. 5 people didn't make it home due to reasons that didn't have to happen. Jon was on this summit, and gives a first hand account to what truly happens on "The worlds tallest Mountain."
