About the author

Reinhold Messner (born September 17, 1944) is an Italian mountaineer and explorer from South Tyrol, often cited as the greatest mountain climber of all time. He is renowned for making the first solo ascents of Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen and for being the first climber to ascend all fourteen "eight-thousanders" (peaks over 8,000 metres above sea level). He is the author of at least 63 books (in German, 1970–2006), many of which have been translated into other languages.

Reviews

[Simon Benx]

Bral v slovenščini v prevodu France Vogelnik, na meji smrti. Zanimivo prvoosebni zapisi o nesrečah v gorah in filozofija Messnerja.

[Paky]

Interesante, especialmente si te atrae la montaña. Siempre es curioso conocer esas experiencias reales en momentos límite, ver cómo reacciona el ser y la mente humana en en situaciones extremas. Sorprendente en muchos aspectos.
