The mountaineer Joe Simpson famously crawled for three days with a broken leg, but did he ever have to read \u003cem\u003eAngels and Demons\u003c\/em\u003e by Dan Brown while waiting for a weather window?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut that's enough about Mark's attempt; there were some talented climbers on the mountain as well, and this story is also about them. How did they get on? Heroes, villains, oddballs and madmen - 8,000m peaks attract them all, and drama, intrigue and cock-ups aplenty were inevitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Horrell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0993413080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780993413087\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mountain Footsteps Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.48d","brand":"Mark Horrell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43927179657471,"sku":"9780993413087","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_fdc96c1e-52ee-49f7-808c-f3de43e3f1e4.jpg?v=1681087313","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thieves-liars-and-mountaineers-mark-horrell-9780993413087","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
