Tami does it again!

I've been following Tami Knight's work for years, when she used to be published in Canadian mountaineering magazines. She was our little secret for years, and whenever we saw an American sitting there bemused by some Canadian mountaineering foible, we'd laugh and laugh and laugh. Then we read Tami and really laugh.Anyway, given recent events on the Big Momo, people might think this book rude, crude and mean. It is. So is Tami Knight. Which is why it must be read. Knight puts her finger right on the main problems with mountaineering nowadays and pushes for all she's worth. Get this book now, before the Ethics Committee has it pulled.

It was like she was right there- amazing!

And I thought only my hairdresser knew for sure what happened on that fated mountain. Read Tami's new book to find out what everybody else in the world failed to reveal. Or make up!

From the sublime to the ridiculous...

Tami Knight has captured, with relentless humor and a keen eye for tragedy as well as comedy, the essence of an overwrought mountain.

most insightful everest book of the 90s

Knight takes nothing sacred and in the process reveals the Everest trophy hunters as unwittingly doing the same. Beau coup laughs.

I can't wait for the movie!

For the true inside scoop on what it takes to climb the big one, this is it. For all those Everest lovers, this is better written than "The Climb" and has more pictures than "Into Thin Air". Makes a great Christmas gift, too!
