by TonySmythe (Author)
Frank Smythe's mountaineering achievements before the Second World War are part of climbing history. In 1933, climbing alone and without oxygen, he got to within 820 feet of the summit of Everest. 50 years after his death in 1949, his son Tony has written a full account of his father's life, an extraordinary story he believed was worth telling.
