A LIFE ON THE EDGE; Memoirs of Everest and Beyond
Seattle: Mountaineers, 1999. First edition. Hardcover. 6 x 9, 271 pgs, index, b&w and a section of color photos. Courageous, no-punches-pulled autobiography and a look at a peripatetic, sometimes difficult life. Beyond the glory of the Everest summit and his other extraordinary climbing feats, including the first American summit of K2, he openly describes his personal, everyman experience of social upheaval in the 1960s and 70s, an early divorce, family strife, a passionate new love later in life, near-bankruptcy, and business triumphs and losses. Very Good+ in Very Good+ DJ. Item #27927
