EVEREST PRODUCED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY (WITH IBG)


Foreword by Jan Morris CBE


ISBN: 9781781450444 £40.00


Celebrating the first successful ascent of Mount Everest on 29th May, 1953, by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, Ammonite Press, in association with the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG), presents a lavish photographic record of this historic event. Over 400 photographs – hand-picked by the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG)’s own Collections staff – and their evocative captions transport the reader from base camp to the treacherous slopes and crevasses of Mount Everest, and on to the peak itself. Additional galleries of more than 150 images record the expeditions of the 1920s and ‘30s, alongside extra photographs of the triumphant 1953 ascent.
