We often hear about mountaineering feats, but this account delves into the emotional and physical toll. I'm curious what motivated Beck Weathers to open up about these traumatic moments.

The descriptions of the ascent and the dangers faced made me both fascinated and uneasy. How did others react to the level of risk described in the book?

Mount Everest’s environment is so extreme that I wonder how much detail is from his perspective and how much was reconstructed through research or interviews.
