“An exhaustive account of tragic deaths that occurred on Mt. Everest during an expedition in which the author himself participated. I didn't find it to be a quick read; a lot of detail weighed the story down. However, it is well-written and conveys a sense of the risks and rewards of of high-altitude climbing.”

“Into Thin Air shows about the wonders of our greatest heighth in the world, Mt. Everest. I have no books about real human expierences, and what book would be good, showing human emotions to the max, and has the tallest moutain in the world. Into Thin Air was my perfect choice. I liked the book a lot, but it was pretty depressing for me. I would probably read it again, but I'm not sure. I think people should read it to learn about the wonder of our world and find out questions about what you have about Mt. Everest. I'm FINALLY DONE!!! 10 BOOKS ALL ON THE SHELF REVIEWED!!!!”

“This book would deserve to be burned into my memory. Even thought his book may not seem very important it is because of the fact that it is non-fiction and educational. It tells people about the risks people take for adventue, something they enjoy, or reserch. The real stories about the experiences on mount everest are very well written and ineresting and would be very important.”
