When eleven climbers died on K2 on August 1, 2008, it was a stark reminder that the world's second-highest mountain has, for more than a century, been regarded as the most difficult and dangerous of all—for every four people who reach the top, one dies in the attempt. K2, The Savage Mountain tells the dramatic story of the 1953 American expedition, led by Charles S. Houston, when a combination of terrible storms and illness stopped the team short of the 28,251-foot summit. Then on the descent, tragedy struck, and how the climbers made it back to safety is renowned in the annals of climbing. K2, The Savage Mountain captures this sensational tale with an unmatched power that has earned this book its place as one of the classics of mountaineering literature.

This radio transmission sums up the indomitable spirit of the Third American Karakoram Expedition, the story of which is told in K2 The Savage Mountain.The entire team had been stormbound for almost a week at 25,500 feet. Unable to move, without supplementary oxygen, they clung to their tiny outcropping while the wind and snow raged around their tents. It was only a matter of time before disaster struck, and it did in the form of Art Gilkey's pulmonary embolism. It was clear that he would have to be carried down the face of the world's second largest and most dangerous mountain in a raging storm. And the others themselves were fighting to survive. And so the message was sent - "All of us are weaker, but morale is very high".This is a classic story of great adventure, survival, heroism and honor. Told with humility and vintage understatement, it grips the reader, imparting a hopeful message of human possibilities.You'll be hard pressed to put it down.
