The book is about the Tatra Expedition Himalayas 1969 and the Second

Nanga Parbat was summited by two team members on July 10, 1971, and two lower summits were attained by other team members. This was the fourth ascent of Nanga Parbat, only a year after Messner's climb with his brother Gunther. In 1969 and 1971 some members of each team drove from Czechoslovakia to Pakistan.
