Commissioned exclusively for The Folio Society, Everest is the ultimate account of five key expeditions to the summit of the world, using spectacular photography and reportage from the men who went there.
Marking the 100th anniversary of the earliest British reconnaissance in 1921, this edition is introduced by Wade Davis and prefaced by Jan Morris, the last surviving member of the 1953 expedition until her death in 2020.
The words and pictures in this two-volume edition were selected by the award-winning mountaineering writer Peter Gillman. The first volume, A Photographic History, collects 268 of the most remarkable mountain photographs ever taken, including breathtaking panoramas, steep gorges, glaciers, ice-fields, pinnacles and close-ups of the ascents. The men’s testimony makes up the second volume, An Eyewitness History, in articles and dispatches, memoirs, official reports and private letters, each accompanied by a commentary by Gillman.
The Folio Society produces beautifully crafted collector’s editions of the world’s greatest books, each with unique illustrations or specially researched photographs throughout. Find books you love at foliosociety.com
