Cleveland, Glacier National Park's tallest mountain, in winter.  Two days later tragedy struck: they were buried in an avalanche so deep that their bodies would not be discovered until the following June.  \u003cb\u003eThe White Death\u003c\/b\u003e is the riveting account of that fated climb and of the breathtakingly heroic rescue attempt that ensued.\u003cbr\u003eIn the spirit of Peter Matthiessen and John McPhee, McKay Jenkins interweaves a harrowing narrative with an astonishing expanse of relevant knowledge ranging from the history of mountain climbing to the science of snow.  Evocative and moving, this fascinating book is a humbling account of man at his most intrepid and nature at its most indomitable.","brand":"Anchor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43350814851327,"sku":"9780385720779","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780385720779_s600x595.jpg?v=1775586546","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780385720779","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
