The book is dedicated to the tragic events of 1996 on Everest: it is a sad, heroic story of the death of five climbers on the highest peak in the world. The unique rescue operation described in the book has no analogues in the history of world mountaineering. “The Climb” is the testimony of one of the main participants in the expedition, the outstanding Russian climber Anatoly Boukreev, who describes in detail, day after day, the course of events, trying to understand the causes of the tragedy. Anatoly Bukreev himself, shortly after writing the book, tragically died in an avalanche while climbing Annapurna on December 25, 1997, 1.5 years after the events described.
