Everest Inc

Everest Inc - The Renegades and Rogues who built an industry on top of the world.

Just released in the UK, this historical account of the emergence and evolution of the Everest guiding industry is a riveting read.  American author Will Cockrell has arranged in-depth interviews of the key players, from the pioneers of the industry to the current major protagonists, into a compelling story of competition, intrigue, and -- too often -- disaster. The many anecdotes include the early 1990s rivalry between the British operators Himalayan Kingdoms and OTT, from which Jagged Globe emerged as one of the 'Big Five'. Everest Inc is a long-overdue historical and a must-read for anyone interested in Mount Everest.
