Review title: Interesting but.....
Product review: If this book had been edited into a New Yorker Magazine style feature article, it would have been a fascinating re-examination of an adventure classic. A thin book at best, certain axes were honed almost into butter knives. While Herzog's tale inspired a generation of post war readers, the incidents investigated here were no more enlightening than those in Kraukaur(sp?) or Bokorev's verions of 1996's nightmare on Mt Everest. The author might have also toned down his own climbs and summits, but then the book would have been even more woefully brief. It was extremely interesting to read the follow ups on the other Anapurna climbers, and I suspect that their likes are amongst us still, but now enabled a bit with cell phones, topo maps, modern equipment, and helicoptor evacuations.
