This is a great book about the 1967 McKinley winter expedition. This is one of the few classics in the literature of mountaineering. It richly deserves a re-publication that will bring it a whole new generation of readers, hungry young climbers and armchair graybeards alike. "The problems were tremendous....No such climb had ever been attempted...Hope alternated with despair. The men struggled with the mountain and their inner selves." Chris Jones, from Climbing North America sums this book up well.
