The definitive story of the British adventurers who survived the trenches of World War I and went on to risk their lives climbing Mount Everest.
On June 6, 1924, two men set out from a camp perched at 23,000 feet on an ice ledge just below the lip of Everest's North Col. George Mallory, thirty-seven, was Britain's finest climber. Sandy Irvine was a twenty-two-year-old Oxford scholar with little previous mountaineering experience. Neither of them returned.
Drawing on more than a decade of prodigious research, bestselling author and explorer Wade Davis vividly re-creates the heroic efforts of Mallory and his fellow climbers, setting their significant achievements in sweeping historical context: from Britain's nineteen-century imperial ambitions to the war that shaped Mallory's generation. Theirs was a country broken, and the Everest expeditions emerged as a powerful symbol of national redemption and hope. In Davis's rich exploration, he creates a timeless portrait of these remarkable men and their extraordinary times.

A Conversation with
Wade Davis
author of
The Great War, Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest
Q: You have written many books before, including The Serpent and the Rainbow: A Harvard Scientist's Astonishing Journey into the Secret Societies of Haitian Coodoo, Zombis, and Magic. How did you become interested in the topic of Everest and what inspired you to begin the 12 year endeavor that would become INTO THE SILENCE?
A: My interest in this story began in the spring of 1996 as I completed a 4000-mile overland journey from Chengdu in western China through southeastern Tibet to Lhasa and on to Kathmandu. Leading that ecological survey was a good friend, Daniel Taylor. Raised in the Himalaya, son and grandson of medical missionaries, Daniel was a veteran of some 45 expeditions to Tibet and had been largely responsible for the creation of the QNP, the 14,000-square-mile nature preserve that encompasses the approaches to Everest.
In late fall 1997, Daniel and I returned to Tibet, intent on photographing clouded leopards, among the most elusive of the great cats. Our journey took us from Kharta south into the Kama Chu along the same trails traveled by the British expeditions of the 1920s. Daniel had grown up with tales of George Mallory; his father was a close friend of Howard Somervell. The British climbers were his heroes and role models as a boy, intrepid men who had walked off the map for hundreds of miles just to find a mountain that no European had encountered at close quarters. Their Everest was the mountain of Daniel's imaginings.
Compared to the British expeditions of the 1920s, our month long sojourn in the Kama Valley was a trivial undertaking. Nevertheless the extremes of altitude took a toll, as did the blizzards and cold. From our camp at Pethang Ringmo, at the base of the Kangshung Face, we stared up at a mountain that has killed one climber for every ten that have reached the summit. It is a formidable sight. Though we were standing on ground higher than any in North America, the mountain rose two miles above, fluted ribs and ridges, gleaming balconies and seracs of blue-green ice, shimmering formations ready to collapse in an instant. The thought of those early British climbers, "dressed in tweeds" as Daniel put it, and "reading Shakespeare in the snow" as they confronted such hazards, filled me with admiration, curiosity and awe. Who were these men, and what was the spirit that drew them on?
Q: How is INTO THE SILENCE different from other books that have tackled Everest and what new information will readers come away with?
A: I think it is fair to say that most books on the subject focus on the figure of George Mallory, and none of them really place these expeditions in their historical context. Altogether 26 men set off for Everest in 1921-24 and each was without doubt as compelling a personality, with as complex a past, as Mallory. Into the Silence is the first book to celebrate and bring into profile the extraordinary biographies of each of the men.
If Everest began as grand imperial gesture, it really did end up as a mission of regeneration and redemption for a nation and an empire bled white by war. What's more these expeditions did not take place in isolation, but rather in the context of the era- the Great Game and the final years of the Raj, the complex diplomatic maneuverings between the British, the Russians and the Chinese. Permission to climb the mountain grew out of an arms deal that was itself part of a grand diplomatic scheme brought into being by Charles Bell.
Into the Silence is also the first book to examine these expeditions from the point of view of the Tibetans. To do so I spent weeks in monasteries, trekked throughout the region with Dorjee Lhatoo, and secured the first complete translation of the spiritual autobiography of Dzatrul Rinpoche, the abbot of Rongbuk who greeted the British in 1921-24. Puzzles that have perplexed scholars for decades are solved. Why and how was Finch excluded from the 1921 effort? Who actually discovered the route to the North Col, the doorway to the mountain? Why was Howard-Bury selected to lead 1921, yet excluded from subsequent expeditions? Why Mallory chose to climb with Irvine? How Finch was betrayed in 1922 and yet, had he not chosen to save the life of Geoffrey Bruce, might well have reached the top. Wheeler has been overlooked in every other book, yet he was the key figure in 1921. John Noel went to his grave speaking of his service in the war. His own family does not know he sat out the war shell-shocked. Finch's own daughter is unaware that her father had three, not two wives. That Mallory knew Wilfred Owen has never been reported.
Q: How did you begin to go about your research?
A: The challenge from the start was to go beyond the iconic figure of George Mallory and take the research to new levels of depth and scope. I began with several visits to London to work through basic archival sources, most especially the 41 boxes of files containing reports, correspondence and miscellaneous documents of the Mount Everest Committee housed at the Royal Geographical Society, which also has the most complete visual record of the expeditions in its photographic collections. The archive of the Alpine Club was equally rich. The letters of George Mallory are for the most part at Magdalene College, Cambridge. Thanks to the generous cooperation of these institutions I was able to secure copies of all documents pertinent to the research, a collection that itself fills six file cabinet drawers in my office. While in London on those early visits I was also able to contact family members, descendents of many of the key figures in the story. All were exceedingly helpful.
My goal from the start was to learn as much as possible about the lives of all 26 men who went to Everest in 1921-24. I was especially interested in their experiences during the war, and my own preliminary efforts at The National Archives (TNA, formerly the Public Record Office), the Imperial War Museum, the British Library and other repositories had convinced me that I needed the help of a professional researcher living in Britain familiar with the complex distribution of military records, many of which are housed in regimental archives scattered throughout the nation.
Knowing the military unit and the location both in time and space of each protagonist throughout the war, the next research challenge was to ascertain to the extent possible what each man might have endured. It was famously said of both Passchendaele and the Somme that the army lacked the clerk power to tabulate the dead. If so, it recorded just about everything else. The Great War was so thoroughly documented that one wonders how the men found time to fight. Every unit maintained a war diary, with the task of reporting on operations, intelligence, casualties and any other pertinent information rotating among the junior officers. These diaries, together with letters, personal journals, and trench maps made it possible to track each of our men through the war with a level of specificity I would not have imagined possible at the outset.
Yet another major research challenge took me into the history of the Raj and the complex diplomatic maneuvers of Lord Curzon, Charles Bell, and the frontier cadre engaged in the Great Game. This phase of the research took me into the orbit of a number of extraordinary historians at Oxford, Cambridge and other British universities.
Q: Of all the incredible findings and discoveries you made in writing this book, were there any that most surprised and intrigued you?
A: In Canada, two avenues of research proved extremely fruitful. After Everest, Arthur Wakefield settled in Quebec, where members of his family still live. His son Bob, who passed away at 92 in 2007, and grandson, Charles, very kindly shared personal insights, as well as Arthur's war diary and Everest journal, and the private letters he wrote to his wife, Madge, both from the Western Front and from Everest. These proved invaluable.
E. O. Wheeler grew up climbing in the Canadian Rockies and his papers are housed at the Whyte Museum in Banff, Alberta. His son John, after an illustrious career with the Geological Survey of Canada, retired to Vancouver, where I found him at 75 living a block away from the house my parents owned when I was born. It was a wonderful encounter. He and my father had attended the same boarding school at more or less the same time, and I by chance had climbed many of the northern peaks that John had been the first to survey. We met for a long afternoon, at the end of which he produced a remarkable treasure. According to Everest historians only Guy Bullock kept a complete journal on the 1921 expedition, curt notes that were published in two parts in the Alpine Journal. Mallory wrote letters and Howard-Bury official dispatches, but neither kept a daily account. E. O. Wheeler, as it turned out, did; two complete volumes that had never been seen by anyone outside of his immediate family. These journals provided an astonishing perspective on the 1921 Reconnaissance, arguably the most interesting of the three expeditions. And they revealed the character and personality of a remarkable man who spent more time alone, higher and closer to the mountain, than anyone; the unheralded Canadian surveyor who mapped the inner core of the Everest massif and solved the puzzle of the North Col, thus opening the doorway to the mountain.
Q: Your research went way beyond the page and into the field. Can you tell us about the time you spent in Tibet?
A: A second major phase of my research entailed several return journeys to Nepal and Tibet. Having delved into the literature, I went back to Everest in 2000 with fresh eyes. Accompanying me was an extraordinarily insightful man and one of the greatest of Himalayan climbers, Dorjee Lhatoo, former head of the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute in Darjeeling, the training ground of all great Indian climbers.
For two months, Dorjee and I walked in the footsteps of the British Reconnaissance of 1921. We visited Tingri and Nyenyam, climbed to the summit of the ruined fortress at Shegar, retraced their approach to the Rongbuk monastery and went up the East Rongbuk glacier to the North Col, and later crossed from Kharta by way of the Samchung La and Chog La to the lower Kama Chu and the headwaters of the Arun. From below Sakeding we traversed the length of the Kama Valley to Pethang Ringmo and the Kangshung Face, before returning over the Langma La to explore the upper reaches of the Kharta Chu.
We did not by any means go everywhere the British went. A plan to reach the Jelep La, visit the village of Dorjee's birth, and then follow the Chumbi Valley to Phari and beyond to Kampa Dzong, was stymied by Chinese officials who, having promised a permit to enter borderlands off limits to foreigners since the 1959 invasion, reneged at the last moment, stranding our party in Tibet, even as they pocketed the $25,000 fee. This set back aside, we covered in those weeks enough ground on foot to leave me only more astonished by what the British accomplished in a single season. Dorjee and I returned to this theme when I visited him in Darjeeling in 2002. We spent several days touring the town, as Dorjee introduced me to a new generation of Sherpa climbers, even as he pointed out what remained of the Darjeeling the British had known in 1921-24.
The longer I spent with Tibetans in the environs of Everest, the more interested I became in what the mountain meant to them, and how their great-grandparents might have viewed the arrival and activities of the British climbers, the first Europeans many of them would have known. A main point of interface, as we have seen, was Rongbuk monastery, headed by its charismatic Abbot, Ngawang Tenzin Norbu, or Dzatrul Rinpoche. Although several of the British climbers wrote of their impressions of Rongbuk, the only account of the British from a Tibetan perspective is based on a few excerpts from Dzatrul Rinpoche's namthar, or spiritual autobiography. This is the encounter between Rinpoche and General Bruce widely quoted in the Everest literature. The autobiography, as far as I could tell, had never been translated in its entirety, but a brilliant monk traslated it for us. To stay at the monastery and be in the presence of Trulshig Rinpoche was from the Tibetan perspective to return spiritually to Rongbuk and the radiance of Dzatrul Rinpoche. More significantly our time at Thubten Chöling opened my mind to the power and wonder of the Buddhist path.
Finally I needed to understand Tibetan notions of sacred geography. I had first learned of hidden valleys and spiritual refugia in the writings of two friends and colleagues, Ed Bernbaum and Johan Reinhard. Their work led me to Hildegard Diemberger, a scholar and adventurer who had spent much of her life in the Himalaya. Her father was the renowned Himalayan climber Kurt Diemberger. It did not surprise me that the daughter of such a man would turn out to be one of the world authorities on Tibetan ideas of sacred landscape. I found her at the anthropology department at Cambridge University, where she welcomed me warmly even as she opened my mind to the real meaning of mountains. It was Hildegard who showed me that the entire time the British were scrambling across the flanks of Everest, they were walking in mystic space.
Q: You write so movingly about the First World War and its impact on the men you write about. Why is it so important to understand the war in order to understand the conquest of Everest and when did you decide to make this such a big part of your book?
A: An author commissioned to write a biography of Mallory after the body was found took me aside ten years ago to say that he had heard that I was looking into the war angle. He said he had done so already, and it just was not there. What he meant presumably is that he had found no evidence that the men had discussed the war en route to Everest. This showed rather dramatically why so many of the previous books seem superficial. Of course the men did not discuss the war. No one did. Graves and T. E. Lawrence famously made a pact never to speak of it. How could they? Words did not exist. Yet each of these men had lived for much of their adult lives in the degradation and horror of the trenches, an experience seared into their consciousness. It was the seminal event of their lives, as it had been for the country.
Q: Although Mallory's attempt to summit Everest ultimately failed, in what ways do you think his endeavor brought hope and redemption to a war stricken generation?
A: I don't think it was a direct or conscious thing, and certainly people did not speak of it that way. But viewed from the distance of time the entire effort brought back into focus the potential of the individual to stand alone, in glorious profile. These men were seen as heroes, in the wake of a war that had crushed the very notion of heroism.
Q: Why do you think Everest and its history continues to hold such fascination for so many people?
A: I think because it ultimately remains a personal test of strength endurance and courage. Even with the commercialization of the mountain, it remains only the will of the individual that allows a man or a woman to reach the summit. What's more everyone who scales the mountain knows that in doing so they are tempting the fates, for ultimately the factors that determine success or failure lie beyond the control of the climber. The wrath of Everest, the uncertain conditions, the wind and the weather remain as unpredictable today as they did in the days of Mallory.
Q: As National Geographic "Explorer-in-residence"—what is next for you in terms of your own explorations and expeditions?
A: I will be working very hard to save an area of British Columbia known to the First Nations as the Sacred Headwaters, the birthplace of three of our most important salmon rivers. I have an illustrated book on the campaign due out in the fall (The Sacred Headwaters: The Fight to Save the Stikine, Skeena and Nass) and will be very active over the next months. I also intend to publish E. O. Wheeler's journals in their entirely and also put out a small book on the Grand Canyon of the Colorado. Once these small projects are complete, and the crisis in northern British Columbia resolved one way or another, I hope to embark on a final series of journeys down the rivers of life, beginning with the Ganga. This will be a ten year effort, and should carry me if not into a rocking chair, at least to the quiet of my porch at Wolf Creek overlooking Ealue Lake and the Sacred Headwaters.

At its heart, Into the Silence is an elegy for a lost generation . . . a magnificent, audacious venture."
—The Sunday Times (London)
"Magnificent. . . . Impressive. . . . A vivid account."

—The Times (London)
"A brilliant book. I can't praise it enough."

"Davis has produced a magnificent, rigorously researched account of the expeditions that set out to regain glory for an empire in decline but, instead, created some of the most enduring legends of the 20th century."
—Financial Times
"A magnificent work of scholarship . . . and narrative drive. . . . [Davis] has written far and away the best account of this seminal chapter in the epic history of mountaineering."
—The National
"Davis is a fine storyteller. . . . A deep current of sympathy runs through the book. . . . One comes away with a feeling almost of tenderness for these men, of admiration for their stoicism in the face of extreme suffering, and their willingness to risk everything for a transcendent ideal. . . . The quest, finally, is not for the summit of Everest, or even for the story of how it eluded these men, but rather for a complex and compassionate understanding of the world in which they lived and died."
—The Boston Globe
"A gripper of a read . . . Silence revives the cliff's-edge drama of those Jazz age climbs and drives home the tragedy of Mallory's death."

—The Spectator
"Magnificent. . . . Fascinating. . . . To keep this mass of material from bulging out of the narrative is an impressive feat of literary organization and management."
—Geoff Dyer, The Guardian (London)
"Combining the pace of a thriller with a degree of detail as nuanced as any academic study, this is an atmospheric and exhilarating book."
—Time Out (London)
"Profoundly ambitious. . . . Impressive. . . . Monumental. . . . This is perhaps the first book . . . to survey the matter not as a record of high adventure, exploration, mountaineering technique or political history, but as zeitgeist."
—Jan Morris, The Telegraph (London)
"As breathtaking and astounding as any previous climbing literature."
—Publishers Weekly
"[Into the Silence] stands as a near masterpiece."
—The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
"Mesmerizing. . . . An epic worthy of its epic."
—Caroline Alexander, author of The Endurance
"Richly detailed, and often riveting, with vivid portraits of all the players, [Davis's] book juxtaposes human ambition, courage and adaptive capability with the relentless realities of terrain and weather. It will stand as the definitive treatment of this subject."
—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"A breathtaking triumph. An astonishing piece of research, it is also intensely moving."
—William Shawcross, author of The Queen Mother
"Davis's lucid and sometimes haunting prose, his masterly handling of a great volume of material, his vivid portraits of the astonishing cast of characters, and of places as diverse as Newfoundland, the trenches of northern France, and the Tibetan plateau, all contribute to this achievement. . . . A world apart from the gimmicks and media stunts that have surrounded the cult of Mallory and Irvine, Davis's book stands as a fitting memorial to a story that is at once poignant and stirring."
—The Times Literary Supplement (London)
"Highly absorbing. . . . A heroic attempt to capture the scale of the undertaking to conquer the highest mountain on earth."
—The Newark Star-Ledger
"In recreating their astonishing adventure, Wade Davis has given us an elegant meditation on the courage to carry on."
—George F. Will

We bought one as a ScoopOn and used it a couple of times on what was a fairly 'failed' camping trip over the XMas break.
They work like a treat in BBQ mode (?) and as two separate burners it works really well too. It seems to be quicker to boil the kettle on this that my old single burner stove.
The carry box is sturdy and huge. It seems to take up a lot of space in the back of the Disco - have to think of a better way of carrying it around.
Anyways if you can get your hands on one of these at a reasonable price - they will no doubt come back on ScoopOn again - worth grabbing on if possible.

In 2006, Blake Mycoskie founded TOMS Shoes with a simple business model: "With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One." In 2011, TOMS launched its second One for One product, TOMS Eyewear, which with every pair purchased helps give sight to a person in need by providing medical treatment, prescription glasses, or sight-saving surgery. Mycoskie will be using 50 percent of his proceeds from this book to create the Start Something That Matters Fund, which will support inspired readers in their efforts to make a positive impact on the world. When Blake isn't working at TOMS, he spends his time reading, writing, fly-fishing, and participating in just about every board sport.

Max Mehl
Max started to get active in FSFE in 2011 when he became member of the translators' team. Within the scope of his Bachelor in Politics and Public Administration in University of Konstanz he was FSFE's Assistant to the President for 6 months starting from October 2013. During this time he worked on FSFE's Timeline and co-organised the campaigns They Don't Want You To, I love Free Software and Document Freedom Day. But his main area was German and EU policy work, especially the Compulsory Routers case where he is still very active in.
Right now, Max is self-employed and finishes his studies. In his free time he is still working for Free Software and FSFE as translator, webmaster and member of the German team. From time to time he gives an update about his current activities in his blog.

One year for Christmas -- I gave out I.O.U.'s with a Christmas note, that said, "Hopefully, we'll be able to celebrate another Christmas in February or July, and I'll be able to get you some presents then. We can even put up a tree -- wrap some gifts and have a fun Christmas party! I love you with all my heart -- and I wish I could do and give you more right now -- but, me, is all I've got today." I had to do that. I was basically living out of my car, changing clothes in a storage shed, and taking showers for quarters at a nearby camp ground. And, I stayed sober! Reality is a myth. It's a personal story that we tell ourselves -- and, when enough others agree on the story -- we call it Reality.We celebrate Christmas on Dec. 25th -- not because Christ was actually born that day -- but, simply because He was born. There have been many times in my life -- when other people's reality didn't line up very well with my financial or emotional well-being. So, rather than opt in to the Personal Myth's & Stories -- that "they" were telling themselves -- I had to think about my own Personal Story. My myth. My reality -- regardless if they agreed with me or not. Trying to make other people happy and solve all their problems isn't an easy job. Most of the time -- it really sucks. And, it always produces hundreds of reasons for a drink! Did you know, that Good Times, can suck, too? I was able to weather the problems -- sober -- but, one time, back in the beginning of my sober adventure -- Life got so Good -- I celebrated it! And, had to start sobriety all over again! Yep. I was coming up on six months -- and I celebrated the six-month chip, two-weeks too early! Dallas

I liked to think I was a good son, a good uncle, a good brother, and a good husband ... but I was none of those things when I drank and used. Now I am a good son to my parents, a good uncle to my nephews, and a good brother to my siblings, and according to my wife I am doing pretty good as a husband too. You could ask anyone of those people would they rather have a gift or me sober ... and they would pick me sober. A side note to that is in the past (and sometimes today) I was an incredibly selfish person (I am sure that comes as a surprise). Now I am far less selfish and the end result of that is people get better gifts now Yesterday was 44 days and God willing today is going to find you at 45 days. Keep it up!

Paper-wrapped Mini Sponge Cake
Remember the mini egg cake recipe I posted a couple of months ago? Many people left comments and tried the recipe, and everyone was asking me about the paper-wrapped mini sponge cake recipe that ones get at Asian-style bakery shops. You know, those cute cup-shaped cake that is spongy, soft, airy, light, and oh-so-good at tea time, or breakfast time? Yes, I've got you covered as I have invited my contributor CP Choong back to share this mini sponge cake recipe with you.
I love this mini sponge cake very much. Every time I go to Asian bakery shops, I would always pick up a couple of these. They are not greasy, and not too dense, so I feel less guilty eating them because they are probably lower in calories (I might be completely wrong but it appears so). Plus, the paper-wrapped/paper-cup shape is always such an eye-candy, and I just can't help picking them up.
Anyway, my contributor CP Choong told me that she learned this recipe from a Chinese language website. After a few attempts, she has perfected this recipe. When I was home earlier this year, I was lucky to taste these sponge cakes that she made. They were absolutely delightful, and taste exactly the same as the ones you get at bakery shops.
Try out if you love them. Enjoy!

In the recipe it calls for "corn flour". Is that the same as corn starch, the stuff we thicken gravy with? I've never seen corn flour. Thanks!
Perfect and cute little sponge cakes, Bee! Pinned!!
oh these sponge cakes look so lovely wrapped up in paper,deliciously tender :-)
Just curious if I can use plain flour instead of cake flour? Thanks!
How long will these sponge cakes keep fresh?
What is the size of the eggs called for in the recipe?
A volume or weight quantity for the egg whites would be most welcome.
Looking forward to trying this recipe!
I can blindly follow your recipe and it comes out perfect everytime. I love this. Pinning it.
Please put US measurements….. Thank you
G'day and yum, TRUE!
Love how something so simple can provide the most food pleasure…I enjoy these topped with fruit too!
Cheers! Joanne

Interesting that cornflour is used. Does it give a lighter texture compared to using all normal flour?
Thank you for posting this recipe. I have been away from home for so long and miss this cake. Do you beat the egg white until soft peaks and do you just fold in the egg yolks in one batch? Can't wait to try out this recipe
Hi Bee,
I've tried this recipe and the other mini egg tarts.
Those were rising well at first, but after put them out from the oven, it started to deflate.
The recipe a bit similar with the chiffon cake recipe. Any tips for that?
Did you pierce your cake with skewer to check if it's cooked?If you do that with sponge cakes, they'll normally deflate and collapse. The best way to check is to gently press the top of the cake with finger, and if it springs back without leaving a dent then your cake will be done and you won't find it deflating as much as in using skewers.Hope this helps.
please put us measurement, thank you so much!
In the first step when you said "beat till peak form", is that soft peak (where the peak comes up with a slightly curl) or stiff speak (where the peak stand straight up and egg whites doesn't slide from bowl when tilrt)?
Appreciate your advice
Please can you tell me what is Castor Sugar. Here is my email address: email@example.com. Thank You
I just made these cupcakes and they tasted really good! But they deflated when I took them out of the pan. Is there any way to prevent that?
Not sure what I did wrong.. The cake turned out to be flat and a bit wet.. It looked like pancake. Any tips on where I might have done wrongly here?
Can I pls know how
To melt the butter cos when
I bake the butter sank at the bottom
Making it oily & heavy
Your recipes are truly beautiful and easy to follow.Please where can i get the paper cups used for the paper wrapped sponge cakes?
Will this recipe work in a full cake size? Similar to the cakes they sell at the Chinese bakery? I'm trying to find a recipe that is like the ones I can find in the bakery, but the ones I've tried/found are still too dense. Thanks!
My cake rise up nicely but it deflate when I remove it from oven.any tips?
I tried the recipe. It tastes good but not fluffy. It lumps at the bottom. Any advice?

Senior Member
EDIT: This guide was made when I was like level 20. I would not recommend anyone actually trying it. I thought about deleting or updating it, but decided to leave it up here as a reminder of how bad I was.
Merich -- Nasus: Enter Sandman
*This is an AD Nasus build.
Disclaimer: There are many ways to build Nasus; however I find this the most effective build for my style of play. Everyone plays differently, so you have to find a build that works with your play style. Also, you must remember that a portion of your build will depend on who you are playing with/against.
The enigmatic creature known as Nasus came to the League from a faraway world, and served as part of a vast and learned desert empire.
There he was a respected and enlightened individual, having been made the Keeper of the Great Library. However, he was also part of a race of animalistic creatures that served as the rulers and protectors of the people. War was never more than a breath away, as others of his kind craved to enslave the people and claim totalitarian sovereignty. In the midst of a heated battle, just as Nasus was about to slay his treacherous brother Renekhton, he was summoned to Runeterra. It didn't take much to convince him that Champions were needed to fight against the injustice here and he took up a place in the League of Legends. These days, he is the Keeper of the Sands, feeling most at home in the crumbling ruins of the Shurima Desert.
''The Keeper of the Sands, though contemplative, is not to be trifled with.''
Soul Eater (passive): Nasus drains his foe's spiritual energy, giving him a natural 10/15/20% Lifesteal
Siphoning Strike (Q): Nasus strikes his foe, dealing damage and increasing the power of his future Siphoning Strikes if he slays his target. Nasus's next attack will deal an additional damage. Siphoning Strike permanently gains damage whenever it kills an enemy.
This becomes a very powerful tool for Nasus late game. Get a point early and let it get stronger on its own.
Wither (W): Nasus ages his target, slowing their movement and attack speed by 32% and reducing it further by each second for 5 seconds.
Dont underestimate Withers usefulness. It is almost a built in Exhaust. Once it is maxed out Wither can almost bring your opponent to a complete stop before it expires.
Spirit Fire (E): Nasus unleashes a delayed spirit flame at a location, dealing damage and reducing the armor of enemies who stand on it. After a brief delay, the target area becomes desecrated. Enemies in the area have their armor reduced and are dealt magic damage (+0 per ability power) each second.
Remember: Spirit Fire is not solely for damage. It gives a nice armor reduction too. This helps out a ton when it comes to hero killing. This is a great farming and harassing tool.
Fury of the Sands (R): Nasus transforms into the Avatar of Death, gaining health and attack speed for 15 seconds. While in this form, he drains nearby enemies' health each second (300 damage max per second) and converts it into bonus attack damage.
This is an amazing ultimate. You do better when surrounded, but be careful if your enemies are smart they will focus you in a team fight. This is good and bad. Good because you can further protect your squishies; bad because you will most likely die in team fights.
Summoner Spells:
1st spell:
Ghost / Flash is a must. Very versatile, good for offense and defense. Personally I prefer Ghost over Flash.
The 2nd spell is a little trickier. This one depends on your allies choices of champions and summoner spells:
I almost always take Exhaust. Like Ghost it is flexible for both defense and offense.
Ignite is always useful.
Flash / Ghost (which ever you didnt take) to double up on your movement.
Heal / Clarity are good early game, but have diminishing results late game (especially for Nasus)
Teleport can come in handy on Summoners Rift
Fortify if your team needs one, plus it will help you last hit minions with Siphoning Strike.
Clairvoyance is good for the added map awareness.
Cleanse is a solid choice. Any enemy team that has no CC deserves to be steamrolled anyway.
Overall: your second choice is up to you. Play what you are comfortable with.
Masteries: 0/9/21 or 9/0/21; depends on you play style. I usually go with 0/9/21 for the added defense.
Armor penetration per level marks, armor per level seals, flat cool-down reduction glyphs, and health per level quintessences
Starting Items:
Cloth Armor, 2 Health Pots, 2 Mana Pots or Cloth Armor, 1 Health Pot, 1 Mana Pot, and 1 Sight Ward
*I generally go for the double pots over the Sight Ward.
Item Order:
Boots of Speed
Chalice of Harmony (Nasus is a mana hog)
Mercury Treads or Ninja Tabi (Do they have a lot of magic users or stunners? Take Mercury Treads)
Bloodthirster or Madreds Bloodrazer
*If they have several champions with high health get Madreds Bloodrazer first
Bloodthirster or Black Cleaver (if they have a lot of armor)
Sheen -> Trinity Force
*Buy Oracle's Elixir after Chalice of Harmony if they have a stealth person. You dont want to be caught off guard.
Dont worry if you dont make it to all of these items. This is the dream build.
Spell Order:
1. Siphoning Strike
Reason being that you want to start getting those last hits early, so that this gets a huge bonus.
2. Spirit Fire
3. Spirit Fire or Wither (Take Wither if you have the enemy on your lane to about ¼ of his health)
4. Wither or Spirit Fire (The one you didnt take at 3)
From here on out your priority will be: R->E->W->Q
The reason I up Q last is because it grows on its own as long as you remember to last hit with it.
The Basics
Map awareness the biggest mistake people make is not knowing where the enemy is. Dont overextend yourself, you open your self up for a gank. Dont depend too heavily on your teammates calling mia, look at the mini map.
Stay behind your minions (especially early game); this will preserve your health while still allowing you to gain experience.
Dont forget to use your mana / health pots. These will allow you to stay in your lane longer.
Lane choices:
Summoners Rift:
I try to get solo top lane because Nasus is one of the best 1v2 champions, but if thats not possible try to get a lane partner that can stun. Generally, Nasus does not take mid, but if you have no carry he does make a decent mid since he can pretty much 1v1 any other champion.
Twisted Treeline:
Nasus makes a solid solo top, but he can still be a really good lane partner. It all depends on your teams composition.
* Remember Twisted Treeline is a gank-fest. Be careful. Nasus is a beast, but every beast can be brought down.
Play conservative last hitting, dropping Spirit Fire so it harasses the enemy and hits the minions. Stay behind your minions. If one or more enemies are missing dont push. Go jungle near your turret and let the enemy minions get closer to your turret before you go back to your lane.
For more help on playing Nasus, I refer you to the amazing Hyfe:
Basic laning tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmUsC1s2yeM
1v2 laning tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbxNZp3-xSM
Last bit of advice: Have fun, this is a game. If people call you a Noob, so what? Everyone was a Noob at some point. Even if you are a veteran there is always more to learn.
Bumi Think like a MAD GENIUS
This is my first guide, how did I do?
You can drop chalice of harmony by simply runing for mp regen, this frees up a valuable spot for another item.
Also you said it best...
"• This is an amazing ultimate. You do better when surrounded, but be careful if your enemies are smart they will focus you in a team fight. This is good and bad. Good because you can further protect your squishies; bad because you will most likely die in team fights."
You will most likely die in team fights building nasus for dps, this is why the tank build is far more viable than the dps build. Your ultimate is usually the primary reason you play nasus, to overcome hp tanks, so the longer you stay alive in team fights the better.
Got to try this build out in game.
I've been thinking of off-the-wall Nasus builds that I want to try out as well. I need to try them out, and they are just for fun, but here's what I'm thinking:
AP Nasus - Rylai's Scepter + Spell Vamp + Ult = AOE slow and life gain. Plus, if I get him to like 500 AP his Ult will hurt the enemy for 10% health
Sunfire Nasus - self explanatory
Last but not least...
Snowball Nasus - He's a hybrid champion, so I was thinking this would be one of those builds where either your team loves you or they yell, "NOOOOOOOB" every 2 seconds.
So with the snowball build I would get all the snowball items in this order: Sword of the Occult, Leviathan, and finally Mejai's Soulstealer. I chose this order because Sword of the Occult will help you kill heroes once it gets rolling allowing you to get more stacks. Then Leviathan will help you live longer thus maintaining your stacks. Mejai's last because Nasus' multipliers aren't the best.
If you want AD, you don't want an offtank like Nasus. You want a DPS carry. Nasus' ult is why he is picked, not his siphon strike.
Unbowed Hero
The king of Omashu is King Bumi, not Boomie.
This guide failed at the DPS nasus beginning. Trust me I played many builds with Nasus. DPS only works on noobs and this DPS guide is just bad.
Further failure in not getting cleanse ghost on dps nasus because you will get CC'd
As for DPS nasus. The "best" DPS nasus build is sheen, starks bloodthirster triforce and yes if the other team does not chain CC you with hard stun you will GG the whole ****ing team and they can't do **** about it because of your attack speed and lifesteal is ****ing ridiculous. Good teams will have CC and stun you and kill you quickly.
If I need magic resist after veil i get abyssal scepter. Makes SF and ult hit harder and is great if they have a chogath or mundo.
As for AP nasus. The build you want is Rod of ages, sheen, rylais, will of the ancients. This is highly situational and is only good against extremely tanky teams. If they have more than 1 dps carry it will shred you and is really worthless but if they have 4 of the following DO THIS. sion, morde, chogath, mundo, garen, shen, rammus, galio, vlad, malphite(pure dps malphite dont do it)

Aljosa Piric was named head men's tennis coach by Athletic Director Dr. Wood Selig on June 29, 2011. He enters his fourth season at the helm of the Monarch tennis program in 2014-15.
Only adding to the esteemed coach's resume, Piric was tabbed to help out the 2014 Bosnia and Herzegovina Davis Cup national team in December of 2013. He has been involved with his home country's national program since 2000 and will look to contribute even further in the coming year. In an impressive showing on April 10, while serving as team captain, Piric's Bosnian squad defeated Finland in the quarterfinals of group play in thrilling fashion.
In the spring of 2014, Piric led the Monarchs to another winning season with a 12-10 overall record, including an impressive 11-6 mark at home. The team took down the No. 64 ranked College of Charleston at home in exciting match. Piric's team showed their resiliency by having a record of 7-1 coming off of a loss, and had only lost two in a row once all season. He also helped guide Carlos Lopez Villa to the 2014 All-Conference USA Singles First Team. Piric's leadership proved to be influential off the court as well, as the team was honored for academic accomplishments in numerous ways. Lopez Villa was named to the C-USA All Academic Team and also received the Arthur Ashe Leadership and Sportsmanship Award. As a whole, the men's tennis team was recognized by the NCAA for a perfect APR performance.
In the fall of 2013, Piric guided junior Carlos Lopez Villa to a USTA/ITA Regional crown, as he became just the second male in school history to accomplish such a feat. Lopez Villa went on to win his first round match at the USTA/ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate Nationals before dropping his second round match to the eventual champion.
During the 2012-13 campaign, Piric's squad won its first match over a ranked opponent since 2009 by defeating No. 27 Harvard 4-3 (2/4). Piric coached Carlos Lopez Villa to First-Team All-Conference USA honors in singles and a ranking of No. 93 by the season's end. He also helped Lopez Villa and Can Cetinel achieve All-Conference USA Second-Team honors in doubles. The duo was ranked as high as No. 23 during the season.
