Description

Discover the powerful story of one woman's lifelong dedication to adventure and determination to succeed, as featured in the brand new BBC2 documentary The Last Mountain

'I shed a tear as I read this . . . I'll admit that I did not do so when I originally heard of her death. The difference? This book' INDEPENDENT
______

Alison Hargeaves was one of the finest climbers of her generation.

But in 1995, she died during a violent storm on K2.

On her death she was vilified by media outrage that a wife and mother would take such extreme risks.

This is the story of a woman with an astonishing determination to be the best that she could.

A woman driven to succeed just to secure a future for herself and her family.
