 The story of Joe Simpson’s survival against the odds has quickly become a mountaineering classic. It won the Boardman Tasker Award in 1988 and the NCR Book Award in 1989.

Joe Simpson with just his partner, Simon Yates tackled the unclimbed West Face of the remote 21, 000 ft SIULA GRANDE in the Peruvian Andes. In June 1995 they achieved the summit before disaster struck. A few days later, Simon staggered into Base Camp, exhausted and frost-bitten, to tell their non-climbing companion that Joe was dead. For three days he wrestled with guilt as they prepared to return home. Then a cry in the night took them out torches, where they found Joe, badly injured, crawling through the snowstorm in a delirium. Far from causing Joe's death, Simon had paradoxically saved his friend's life. What happened, and how they dealt with the psychological traumas that resulted when Simon was forced into the appalling decision to cut the rope, makes not only an epic of survival but a compelling testament of friendship.

Beautifully illustrated, hardback book, with unclipped dustjacket, in good, used condition,  ex-library with usual stamps/labels,  not price clipped,  173 pages, 24cm x 16.5cm.
