by Arlene Blum, PhD 20th Anniversary Edition This best-selling account of the history-making 1978 ascent of Annapurna I by the American Women's Himalayan Expedition was just republished on October 15, 1998, the 20th anniversary of the day the team reached the summit. It includes a new forward and afterward by the author with updates on the team members and the impact of the Annapurna climb upon their lives. This classic story in the annals of women's achievements, Annapurna was the first account of mountaineering triumph and tragedy to be told from a woman's perspective. A huge critical and commercial success, the original edition sold more than 65,000 copies. As timely and riveting today as when it was first published, Annapurna is a story of challenge and commitment, told with passion, humor, and honesty. How to order :
