"By itself it's a coffee table book, however its value increases greatly if read in parallel with Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer. It makes a great supplement to that book as it features high quality National Geographic pictures of the setting and events and, more importantly, tells the story from the perspective of a different expedition (the heroic IMAX expedition.)"
"I am fascinated by stories of Everest. This one chronicles the filming of the Imax movie the same year that many people died in a large storm. The pictures are stunning."
