(from inside jacket) On May 29, 1953 Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay reached the summit of Mt. Everest and became the first men to climb the highest mountain in the world. Meticulously researched, "On Top of the World" is the true story of the two men and their assault on mighty Mt. Everest. It is also the story of those who never reached the top of the world-early expeditions that failed but contributed vital information about the treacherous terrain, and dedicated team members who knew from the start that they would not stand on the summit but worked selflessly to ensure that others would.
