When Jon Krakauer reached the summit of Mt. Everest in the early afternoon of May 10, 1996, he hadn't slept in fifty-seven hours and was reeling from the brain-altering effects of oxygen depletion. As he turned to begin his long, dangerous descent from 29,028 feet, twenty other climbers were still pushing doggedly toward the top. No one had noticed that the sky had begun to fill with clouds. Six hours later and 3,000 feet lower, in 70-knot winds and blinding snow, Krakauer collapsed in his tent, freezing, hallucinating from exhaustion and hypoxia, but safe. The following morning, he learned that six of his fellow climbers hadn't made it back to their camp and were desperately struggling for their lives. When the storm finally passed, five of them would be dead, and the sixth so horribly frostbitten that his right hand would have to be amputated.
Into Thin Air is the definitive account of the deadliest season in the history of Everest by the acclaimed journalist and author of the bestseller Into the Wild. On assignment for Outside Magazine to report on the growing commercialization of the mountain, Krakauer, an accomplished climber, went to the Himalayas as a client of Rob Hall, the most respected high-altitude guide in the world. A rangy, thirty-five-year-old New Zealander, Hall had summited Everest four times between 1990 and 1995 and had led thirty-nine climbers to the top. Ascending the mountain in close proximity to Hall's team was a guided expedition led by Scott Fischer, a forty-year-old American with legendary strength and drive who had climbed the peak without supplemental oxygen in 1994. But neither Hall nor Fischer survived the rogue storm that struck in May 1996.
Krakauer examines what it is about Everest that has compelled so many people -- including himself -- to throw caution to the wind, ignore the concerns of loved ones, and willingly subject themselves to such risk, hardship, and expense. Written with emotional clarity and supported by his unimpeachable reporting, Krakauer's eyewitness account of what happened on the roof of the world is a singular achievement.
Into the Wild is available on audio, read by actor Campbell Scott.
除了金飞豹那段很二的推荐外,其他都很好(可能是因为我曾在哈巴大本营见过此君的的德行对他有偏见,比较讨厌那些心口不一的嘴脸)
评分作者是Jon Krakauer,也是《荒野生存》(Into the wild)的作者,职业是记者,这两本书都是探险纪实类作品吧。与Into the wild中探求还原主人公的整个阿拉斯加生存精神和生活状态不同,这本书力求真实的还原了珠峰商业登山队从出发到最后的整个过程,涉及很多登山知识和细节以...

每一个都令人心碎心塞。人性里所携带的一切,对与错,都止于死亡。死亡是跟所有问题都不同的一个问题。超出问题本身的问题。本学期完成的第一本阅读教材。 另,不知怎么搞的,读书每像贴面而过,总是沾染了一点什么才走。这是我在死亡之前做的其中一件事。
评分为了实现梦想,你能够付出什么?
评分在博卡拉望着雪山小旅馆里看得天昏地暗得精神食粮。
评分爬到最后,已经不知道爬山的目的是什么了。到底是英勇冒险,还是虚荣心作祟?
