About the Book
Jamling: A Climber’s Journey tells the gripping and inspirational story of Jamling Norgay’s Everest summit during the deadly 1996 climbing season, intertwined with the historic 1953 ascent of Everest by his father, Tenzing Norgay, alongside Edmund Hillary. This book offers more than a mountaineering chronicle; it is a story of passion, endurance, and the spiritual heritage of the Sherpa tradition.
Through his personal journey, Jamling explores the dangers of high-altitude climbing, the obsession that drives mountaineers to risk their lives, and the discovery of his father’s legacy. The narrative captures both the physical and emotional challenges of climbing the world’s tallest peak, while highlighting the extraordinary bond between father and son.
Celebrated by Reinhold Messner as “a story of passion, hardship and endurance” and praised by Jon Krakauer as “enthralling,” this re-issued classic of mountaineering literature is a must-read for adventure enthusiasts and those seeking a profound human story of courage, discovery, and legacy.
