64. Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer
“Into Thin Air” by Jon Krakauer is a gripping read that I couldn’t put down. It’s Krakauer’s firsthand account of the disastrous 1996 Everest expedition, where he was a journalist on assignment.
The book masterfully captures the perilous beauty and unforgiving nature of high-altitude climbing. Krakauer’s vivid storytelling transported me right onto Everest, feeling the chill and witnessing the drama unfold.
It’s perfect for hikers and mountaineers who are drawn to tales of adventure and survival. While it highlights the dangers of such expeditions, it also beautifully illustrates the human spirit’s resilience.
