New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

In 2019 Nirmal ‘Nims’ Purja set out to climb all 14 Himalayan peaks above 8,000 meters, including Everest, Annapurna and K2, in a record-breaking seven months. He describes the challenges and exhilaration of each ascent, and explains how his military service in the Gurkhas and Special Boat Services gave him the resilience and self-belief to survive close encounters with death. Slightly off-mint.
