On August 20, 1980, Reinhold Messner reached the summit ov Everest - alone and without the use of oxygen. His vivid account of this extraordinary achievement forms the core of The Crystal Horizon. Messner describes with passion his journey through Tibet, a mysterious country of snow peaks, ruined monasteries, and yak caravans. He identifies with the legenary mountaineers who have gone before him; Mallory, Irvine, and Wilson come to life as he makes his ascent to the "roof of the world." |
