Recenzii

A finely wrought and meticulously detailed biography of Mallory ... It is at once compelling and evocative -- Joe Simpson, author of TOUCHING THE VOID ' A superb biography' Daily Telegraph A rich portrait of a man who defies facile categorisation ... The new biography is spot-on [about the climbing] -- Stephen Venables, Daily Telegraph The Gillmans have produced a respectful and thoroughly researched account of Mallory's life -- Observer This exemplary biography of Mallory, which draws upon much new material, puts the man in all his many perspectives... Strikingly well balanced -- Jan Morris, Spectator It is a masterful achievement - impeccably researched, beautifully written and a delight to read. Without question the Gillmans have written a definitive biography of an utterly fascinating man -- Jon Krakauer A poignant story, handsomely told -- Yorkshire Post The most compelling read over 12 months ... Go out and buy it -- Ian Wooldridge, Daily Mail Mountaineering biography at its best ... A fascinating life, an interior journey coupled with exterior adventure, and well told, too -- Chris Smith, Mail on Sunday
