The Wildest Dream: The Biography of George Mallory
"The book is a magnificent portrait of the most famous mountaineer in history, and certainly the most incisive dissection of his complex character that has yet been achieved.

In this book the great days are recounted with a rare precision and grace commensurate to the task."
