Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. For as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalayas, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In 2008, when 11 climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their story.Vouchers to attend are $5 and get you $5 off the author’s featured book or a purchase on the day of the event.
