First published 1976. Introduction by John Hunt. Everest the Hard Way is the account by Chris Bonington of the 1975 British expedition that achieved the first ascent of the South-West Face of Mount Everest one of the most difficult and dangerous routes on the mountain. The route had already defeated five previous expeditions including one led by Bonington. The expedition eventually succeeded when climbers Doug Scott and Dougal Haston reach the summit on 24 September 1975 after a gruelling ascent. Their achievement is considered one of the landmark climbs in Everest history because it opened a major new route up the mountain. 9780340208335 Hodder & Stoughton unknown

197613240London: Hodder and Stoughton 1976. A first edition first printing published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1976. Octavo. Original blue cloth gilt. Dustwrapper. Pp. 239. Bonington's narrative of the first successful ascent of Everest via the south-west face a route that had already defeated the five prior expeditions. The first summiteers Dougal Haston and Doug Scott became the first Britons to set foot on the top of Everest. The book details their route to the summit and describes how following their successful ascent they bivouacked with exhausted supplemental oxygen supplies at 28700 feet spending a 'night out in China' over the border ridge at the South Summit. Illustrated throughout. Top edge slightly faded else a near fine tight clean copy in slightly creased and rubbed dustwrapper which has a very short closed tear to the rear panel but is in very good condition at least. SIGNED ON THE FRONT FREE ENDPAPER 'TO MICHAEL' BY DOUG SCOTT CHARLES CLARKE AND DOUGAL HASTON. Charles Clarke was the expedition doctor and wrote Appendix 10 in the book on Medicine. Whilst copies signed by Bonington Scott and other are relatively common and inexpensive copies signed by the first summiteers together are very scarce. Dougal Haston lived abroad in his role as Director of the International School of Mountaineering in Leysin Switzerland and tragically lost his life in an avalanche whilst skiing a steep couloir near his home in January 1977 soon after the book was published.
