About Books, November 8, 2008

James Tabor's "Forever on the Mountain" tells the story of one of moutaineering's most controversial diasters. It takes place in 1967 when two climbing groups grudgingly united for a trek up Alaska's Mt. McKinley. Near the peak, they encountered a terrible storm and seven young men died. This book unravels the mystery of what went so badly wrong.
