K2 is almost 800ft shorter than Everest, yet it's a far harder
climb. Many great mountaineers became obsessed with reaching its
summit, not all of them lived to tell of their adventures.
Capturing the depth of their obsession, the heart-stopping tension
of the climb and delving into the controversy that still surrounds
the first ascent, Mick Conefrey delivers the definitive account of
the 'Savage Mountain'. From drug-addicted occultist Aleister
Crowley to the brilliant but tortured expedition leader Charlie
Houston and, later, the Italian duo who finally made it to the top,
Conefrey resurrects the tragic heroes, eccentric dreamers and
uncompromising rivalries forever instilled in K2's legacy. This is
the riveting, groundbreaking story of the world's deadliest
mountain.
