Why read it?
1 author picked High Exposure as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Mount Everest is arguably the location of the most epic adventures ever.
This is my favorite book about Everest, perhaps because the author, David Breashears, is a friend who shared many Thanksgiving dinners with me during the thick of his climbing and high-altitude film career. He is most well-known for producing the popular IMAX film, Everest.
This is Breashear’s autobiography. It includes his perspective on the 1996 Everest tragedy, which he not only miraculously survived but also saved the lives of other climbers. I also enjoyed the book, Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer, which is about that same…
From Lisa's list on adventure that are utterly entertaining.
