Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mount Everest Disaster
ISBN: 9780385494786 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. National Bestseller A bank of clouds was assembling on the not-so-distant horizon, but journalist-mountaineer Jon Krakauer, standing on the summit of Mt.

By writing Into Thin Air, Krakauer may have hoped to exorcise some of his own demons and lay to rest some of the...
