12 Books About the 1996 Everest Disaster

All About Everest Podcast
About this episode

Today's topic is the best books about the 1996 Everest disaster. Each one is it's one different perspective. Recently I listened to an interview with Sandy Hill (Hill-Pittman), which reminded me that every single person on the mountain that year had their own very unique experience. Though some of the authors are very critical of the other climbers, some of these books are about the very personal stories of the individual climbers.

The complete list of books: 12 Books About the 1996 Everest Disaster
