Book cover for Within reach my Everest story
Description
<div>In May 1996 the media scrambled to document the gripping story of sixteen-year-old <b>Mark Pfetzer</b>'s expedition to Mount Everest. Not only was he the youngest climber ever to attempt the summit, he also witnessed the tragedy documented in <b>Jon Krakauer</b>'s <b>Into Thin Air</b>, in which eight climbers perished in a sudden storm. <b>Within Reach</b> is Mark's extraordinary account of this experience and of his triumphs over several other challenging peaks. At once triumphant and tragic, this story will be an inspiration to climbers, athletes, and armchair enthusiasts alike.</div>
