Tex in English, translated by Hugh Merrick. "If his story of Hermann Buhl's death on Broad Peak at 26,000 feet is vivid and harrowing in the extreme, and his detailed account of the Eiger north face infinitely absorbing, his opening tale of a crystal hunt and closing meditations on being faced with the cave-paintings of Altamira, reveal a character original, sensitive and imaginative. The photographs, all by Kurt Diemberger himself, are a worthy accompaniment to a so readable and so moving story." - from dust-jacket blurb.
