Parbat Abhijan by Debasish Biswas [Hardcover]

"‘Life and death are but servants at one's feet...’ This phrase seems to be intrinsically linked to mountaineering. Mountaineering is filled with diverse thrills all around. At every bend of the mountain paths, new experiences seem to be waiting. Along with this come the perilous routes through crevasses and mountain caves. Many people have risked their lives to advance in various mountaineering expeditions. Besides this, there is immense physical hardship. Accidents are not uncommon on these dangerous paths. Just as there are events, accidents are also an integral part of mountaineering. Mountaineer Debashis has written about these thrilling and terrifying stories of events and accidents in this book— as gripping as any suspenseful story."
