The Himalayas are home to the 14 greatest mountains on the planet--each towering over 26,246 feet. In breathtaking images and panoramic mountain maps, Himalaya marks the 60th anniversary of Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's landmark ascent of Everest, as well as the 50th anniversary of the first successful American expedition. It examines the region's geographical origins, peoples, and discovery by the West, along with heroic pioneering ascents--including K2, Nanga Parbat, Annapurna, Kangchenjunga, and Lhotse--and new frontiers, routes, and mountaineering techniques.
