"The Longest Climb" is the utterly compelling account of Dominic Faulkner's expedition from the Dead Sea to the peak of Everest. Dominic and his team, EverestMax, were the first ever to make this journey - a dangerous one, both politically and personally. Following much of the ancient Silk Road they cycled five thousand miles across Jordan, Syria, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan and India on the way to Tibet and the bottom of the world's highest mountain, where they prepared for the climb of their lives. From escaping the Syrian army and confronting Iranian mullahs, to deciding whether or not to share the little oxygen they have and risk their own lives in order to save another climber, "The Longest Climb" is a high-octane combination of the huge personal risk, fascinating cultural insight, and momentary farce that make up a major expedition. |

"There before us soared Everest, every feature of the North Face clear to see - even the summit looked perfect and serene. Mother nature had finally accepted us... thrown all she could.... and now admitted defeat in quiet resignation." |
