In 1924, British climber George Mallory and Andrew “Sandy” Irvine set out from their final camp high on the mountain and vanished, leaving behind one of mountaineering’s enduring mysteries: did they reach the summit before they died? FitzSimons then follows the 1953 expedition that finally succeeded, when Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay climbed from their last camp to the top of Everest, finding no sign that Mallory and Irvine had beaten them there. Along the way, he brings in key figures including George Finch, the Australian whose work with oxygen helped climbers push higher into the death zone.
