By Dan Egan and Eric Wilbur
Sheltered in a snow cave on Mount Elbrus, Dan Egan stares into the mouth of a storm on the tallest mountain on the European continent, a merciless mountain which claims more lives per year than Everest. Egan emerges from the white haze of the storm to summit a climactic arc we see repeated across decades like waves on the ocean and peaks in the sky. Paperback, signed copy.
