Description:When George Mallory was lost on Everest in 1924, his family, friends and fellow climbers contributed their personal reminiscences of the man who has since become a legend in the history of mountaineering. His close friend and climbing companion David Pye was persuaded to blend these many remembrances of Mallory into a memoir - a job which he undertook with considerable diffidence, as related in an introduction by his son to this facsimile of the 1927 edition. Since his body was found on Everest in 1999, seventy-five years after his death, several more books have appeared about Mallory and the expedition which found him, including a reprint (also from the Orchid Press) of the biography by his son-in-law David Robertson which was first published in 1969. Most of these books, and many others about Everest, make frequent reference to this Memoir.A bibliography with selected references to books about Mallory and Everest is also included.--From the 2006 edition.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
