In May 1988 Stephen Venables pushed on alone to the summit of Everest, following and ascent of the Kangshung (East) Face. He was only the eighth Briton to stand on top of the world's highest mountain, and the first to do so without the use of oxygen supplies. In this book the author shares all of his experiences of this feat - the triumphs, the rows, and the last desperate struggle for survival in the area known as the "death zone", 26,000 feet above sea level.

Every day, the path up the South Col route to the summit of Everest becomes a little more worn by the tread of dozens of package-tour climbers, but few dare to try the East, or Kangshung, Face, a sheer, avalanche-swept wall of snow and ice only first conquered in 1983. Five years later, Stephen Venables intensified the challenge by leading three unknown American climbers up the East Face - this time without oxygen. The question to most climbing experts wasn't whether they would summit, but whether they would live. They nearly didn't Everest: Alone at the Summit is Venables' rousing account of one of the greatest feats of twentieth century mountaineering, a triumph over doubt, the elements and the limits of human endurance that has never been repeated. "Climbers or not, all will be interested in this mountaineering thriller of a tiny band pulling off an incredible victory-an account so stirring it will be put down only to obtain a moment's breather." - American Alpine Journal.
