Bookroo's summary

Journey to the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, where ancient history meets modern ambition. Explore the mountain's storied past, from its first settlers to daring climbers facing life-or-death challenges. Discover tales of triumph and tragedy as expeditions navigate the treacherous ascent. Will they conquer the summit or fall victim to its unforgiving nature? This gripping narrative unveils the allure and peril of Everest, where every climb is a test of human spirit.

From the publisher

As the recent deaths of sixteen Sherpas underscore, climbing Mount Everest remains a daunting challenge. Located in the Himalayas, Everest is the highest mountain in the world at a whopping 29,028 feet. In this compelling narrative, Nico Medina guides readers through the mountain’s ancient beginnings, first human settlers, historic climbs, and the modern commercialization of mountain-climbing. With stories of expeditions gone wrong and miraculously successful summit climbs, this is a thrilling addition to the Where Is? series!
