Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mt. Everest Disaster

1997

Krakauer's first-person account of the 1996 Everest disaster in which eight climbers died. A meditation on risk, hubris, courage, loyalty, and the razor's edge between heroism and catastrophe. One of the most gripping men's adventure memoirs ever written. Widely read in men's circles as a lens on mortality, decision-making under pressure, and what drives men to extreme limits.
