searched for Jon Krakauer and then Into Thin Air and finally on the 6th screen the book with a cover came up What s with this crappy search engine hide spoiler where he slags off Boukreev as a guide who put his own ambitions first and didn t do enough to save people in the disaster that was the 1996 climbing seaon on Everest What respect I had for Krakauer limited because he was ve Contrast this with Krakauer s Into Thin A...Interesting to see the counter story, but without a doubt, Krakauer s has farfactual backing and truthfully presented research This book was self serving to a point of failing factually and that is DeWalt s fault, not Boukreev s Since many people reviewing this book are using the space to argue Boukreevs skill and character, incorrectly assuming that this validates his account, I wanted to address some of those ideas.Some reviewers are failing to realize a few very important things, Interesting to see the counter story, but without a doubt, Krakauer s has

important things, the first being a phenomenal climber DOES NOT necessarily make a phenomenal guide in fact, guiding and climbing are two very different things Next, I see a lot of people giving credit rightfully so to Boukreev for his undeniably heroic efforts in the early morning of the May 11th BUT, how could anyone forget that the tragedy BEGAN on the 10th As a climber i m calling heroics not...After having read Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer, I had an impression of this particular Everest expedition that, as I have found out, is completely erroneous Mr Krakauer unjustly and inexcusably defamed Anatoli Boukreev by painting a false picture of an event that took the lives of five individuals and left many others ravaged and haunted This book, The Climb, presents information as gathered by the Everest team itself and Mr Boukreev s account of this expedition Not only was Anatoli Boukre After having read Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer, I had an impression of this particular Everest

Boukreev unjustly accused of wrongdoing, he was shockingly unheralded for his heroic efforts immediately following the disaster At a time when no one else was able or willing to rescue stranded and freezing climbers, Anatoli Boukreev summoned what little strength he had left to search through a blinding and devastating storm for his fellow mountain...Anatoli is the man, or was I should say I ve read a lot of comments others have written about this book, and how many people say that Krakauer s book is so muchentertaining and blah blah blah I look for validity in non fiction I happen to believe a man who s been climbing since he was a teenager and has the resume that Bourkreev has, he also seems to be a man ofaction than words Lets not forget that Krakauer is a writer and has to sell books Anatoli deservescredit th Anatoli is the man, or was I should say I ve read a lot of comments others have written about this book, and how many people say that Krakauer s book is so

about mountain climbing even though wanting to be the one thousandth person to climb and having fixed ropes and ladders laid out by underpaid third world sherpas hardly seems like a valid way to spend 70,000 Now Mallory s attempt is something else entirely I m reading Into the Silence The Great War, Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest I read Jon Krakauer s Into Thin Air A Personal Account of the Mt Everest Disaster and very much liked it This book was presented by some a I love reading about mountain climbing even though wanting to be the one thousandth person to climb and having fixed ropes

Air without The Climb , would be like watching a David Attenborough documentary without the volume turned up Sure you get the images and you can sort of figure out that something important is happening to the sleeping newt as it s been on screen for thirty minutes But you miss out on Attenborough s docile tones giving rich insights into why it s so important that the newt just flicked its tail Is Apparently prosciutto without fat is like a kiss without a cuddle I reckon reading Into Thin Air without The Climb , would be like watching a David Attenborough documentary without the volume

climbing without oxygen and going on ahead of his team to reach the summit His best reply, I thought, was his answer to Krakauer s criticism about not using oxygen When the stragglers did not show up at base camp, Boukreev describes how he went back out into the white out and saved several people, while Krakauer simply went to sleep in his A fascinating account of what ...I am glad that Boukreev had a chance to share his perspective on the 1996 Everest tragedy before he died Many reviewers on goodreads commented on thetedious style of this book compared to Into Thin Air I thoroughly enjoyed it, reading it in 2 sittings Boukreev s climbing and summiting experience make this a fascinating look at many details of an Everest climb Although Bookreev does not share his personal life directly, the reader learns much about him through his conversations, decisio I am glad that Boukreev had a chance to share his perspective on the 1996 Everest tragedy before he died Many reviewers on goodreads

the 1996 Everest disaster, in which a series of bad decisions and coincidences led to the deaths of 5 climbers, among them Rob Hall and Scott Fishcer, who were among the best in their professions The focus of the narrative is the experience of Russian guide Anatoli Boukreev To understand The Climb one pretty much needs to also have read Into Thin Air , another account of the disaster authored by Jon Krakauer, who was also among those ...The other side of a well known story Every story has two sides In this book, readers of Jon Krakauer s best selling Into Thin Air can hear the other side of
