When eleven climbers died on K2 on August 1, 2008, it was a stark
reminder that the world's second-highest mountain has, for more
than a century, been regarded as the most difficult and dangerous
of all-for every four people who reach the top, one dies in the
attempt. K2, The Savage Mountain tells the dramatic story of the
1953 American expedition, led by Charles S. Houston, when a
combination of terrible storms and illness stopped the team short
of the 28,251-foot summit. Then on the descent, tragedy struck, and
how the climbers made it back to safety is renowned in the annals
of climbing. K2, The Savage Mountain captures this sensational tale
with an unmatched power that has earned this book its place as one
of the classics of mountaineering literature.
