did not check complete list so do not know if this is a duplicate, it definitely is a must read,it is life at its worst and the sadness of loss, I just think it is an incredible journey of resilience, friendship and true meaning of comradeship. I found it very sad yet inspiring.
“The Long Walk – Slovomir Rawicz”

Nothing new in mountaineering or adventuring circles, but these are classics:

Dougal Haston: The Philosophy of Risk – Jeff Connor
The Wild Places – Robert MacFarlane
The Worst Journey in the World – Apsley Cherry-Garrard

On that not, I think I might create a book section on my blog…
