Title: Worse than the Book
Review: During the first five minutes of this book it is painfully obvious that it is a very low budget film. They couldn't even get the landmarks right on the Everest map. Clothing and gear is wrong. Sequence of events and factual reconstruction isn't even close. At one point they have Krakuer striking out in a blizzard on the South Col to rescue stranded climbers, only to have a sherpa beg him to abandon his efforts. The facts show and even by Krakuers own admission he was sleeping in his tent and refused any participation in rescue efforts. This film will make you ill if you have a grasp of the facts.
