Description
The White Spider is the harrowing account of the first ascent of the North Face of the Eiger, a climb that pitted explorers against treacherous conditions and the limits of human endurance. In 1938, a team of climbers, including Heinrich Harrer, finally conquered the Eiger's fearsome North Face, a landmark expedition that has been attempted by many but few have succeeded. Harrer's gripping narrative offers a unique insight into the physical and mental challenges of this extreme climb.
