Detailed Product Description

Munchen, 2010 [1971], new edition. 223 pp, 58 color and b/w photos. In German. This is Messner's first and scarcest book, and the book has a long story. In this, Messner's first Himalayan climb, Messner and his brother Gunther climbed Nanga Parbat and descended another route, with Gunther dying on the descent. This book sparked controversy from the beginning, as Messner accused the expedition leader, Karl Herrligkoffer, of incompetence, and Herrligkoffer sued Messner and won, causing this book to be withdrawn from the bookshops and most copies destroyed!

The controversy surfaced again as new accusations swirled around, as Messner has recently written a several new Nanga Parbat books, and his old team mates have written their own books with different versions of the events of 1970. Messner describes his ascent of Nanga Parbat and the loss of his brother Gunther on the peak. Due to a lawsuit by the expedition leader Karl Herrligkoffer the book was withdrawn and copies of the 1st edition are very scarce. New hardcover with dust jacket.
