  1. Raj Navinkumar Baghel

    Informative, but not particularly well-written. I learned a lot about early mountaineering techniques. A solid, if unspectacular, read.

  2. Harsh

    Interesting to know about Hillary’s life, a bit dragged in some part.

  3. Rahul Kannojia

    An amazing story, well told. Hillary’s life is truly inspiring and full of adventure. I couldn’t put it down! This book is a -star read.

  4. Manasvi Saboo

    Captivating from beginning to end! Hillary’s courage and determination are truly remarkable. A must-read for any adventure lover.

  5. Debdeep Paul

    Excellent! A great reminder of what people can accomplish. A book on perseverance and courage,

  6. Pooja

    An average account of an extraordinary life. I found it somewhat lacking in excitement considering the subject matter.

  7. Shantanu Tehlan

    A good overview of Hillary’s life. Some parts were more engaging than others. The Everest section was the highlight, of course.

  8. Aditi Sherawat

    Enjoyable book! Gave great insight to the historic climb to Everest and a little of the personal drive behind such ambition.

  9. Ankit Maurya

    A bit dry at times, but still informative. I appreciated the insights into the logistics of mountaineering in that era. Not a page-turner, but worth reading.

  10. Aprajita Kumari

    Fascinating to learn about Hillary’s other adventures beyond Everest. The book felt a bit disjointed at times, jumping between different expeditions. Overall, an interesting life story.

  11. Nidhi Singh

    Found this book really interesting! A great read for people interested in mountain climbing. I highly recommend this one.

  12. Purbayan Dhar

    Hillary’s passion for adventure is infectious. This book made me want to get out and explore the world! A truly inspiring read.

  13. Rahul Rakesh

    Inspirational! Hillary’s humility shines through. A great reminder that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things with determination. Highly recommend!

  14. Ayush Gupta

    I was hoping for more introspection from Hillary. He recounts events without much emotional depth. Still, an important historical document.

  15. Mahak

    A decent read, but I expected more detail about the Everest climb itself. Hillary’s writing style is straightforward, but not particularly captivating. Still, a worthwhile historical account.
