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

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

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.

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.

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 Still, an important historical document.

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.
