About the event
On assignment for Outside magazine, Jon Krakauer joins a guided ascent of Everest—then watches summit fever, thin air, and a sudden storm turn triumph into catastrophe. Part eyewitness chronicle, part forensics, his account tracks how small lapses compound into an infamous 1996 disaster. The result is a classic of high-altitude nonfiction—urgent, haunted, and stubbornly clear-eyed.
