Description: Signed by one of the guides at a fundraising event to prevent alcohol and drug abuse - see photos https://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/17/sports/17climber.html Beidleman was serving as a guide under Scott Fischer in May 1996 when a raging storm overtook two climbing teams high on the mountain. Five climbers on the teams died, including Fischer, who led one team, and Rob Hall, who led the other. In all, eight climbers died during the storm, a story chronicled by Jon Krakauer in his best-selling book “Into Thin Air.” ps please feel free to check out my feedback! My passion is getting items we no longer need into the hands of someone who will love them again ❤️. This item was loved by me or someone in my family ! I have never “flipped” a book - my family, parents, kids, etc are all avid readers and these are one that can no longer be kept from our collection. If it’s a former library book it will be clear in the listing & would only be because we bought it to read and many years later are selling it :)
