Singapore, 1999. 241 pp, 90 color photos. Lim was the leader of the 1998 Everest ascent that was the first to put a Singaporean on the summit. Hardcover, Dust Jacket, New.
It is the story of a country's quest for Everest, the failures, heart-break and sacrifices behind one of Singapore's greatest sporting achievements. It is also an uplifting, inspiring and courageous story of a group of ordinary people with an extraordinary quest. You will agonize with the team as they come within 100 meters of the summit only to turn back, rejoice when they finally make it, and you will weep with David as he struggles in hospital. From climbing the world's greatest mountain ranges to his slow journey to recovery and uncertain future, Mountain to Climb is a story that will hold you in its grip like no other.
