## Description

Buy The Third Pole: Mystery, Obsession, and Death on Mount Everest by Synnott, Mark (ISBN: 9781524745592) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Mountain History and Mystery - A fantastic, detailed and brilliant account of enduring mystery of Mallory and Irvine's 1924 ascent of Everest and disappearance. Mark Synnott deftly interweaves his own climb and expedition to try to locate the body of Andrew 'Sandy' Irvine with the history, science & politics surrounding the first expeditions aiming to summit Everest. In addition Synnott respectful provides accounts of other climbers on the mountain in 2019 and the many personal tragedies that occurred. It is as detailed and comprehensive a book on Everest I have read. Superbly written - with many questions answered and still many remaining a mystery.
Review: Good for newbies who know nothing about Mallory and Irvine - Have great respect for Mark Synnott and everything he has achieved but this was a dull read for me personally. In spite of it being a well written and detailed book about Mallory and Irvine. I was already familiar with most of what Mark writes about. However, if you are a total newbie to the mystery of Mallory and Irvine, then, I think you would really enjoy reading this. If, on the other hand, you're a bit of a Mallory obsessive, like I am, this book is not for you. There's nothing in it that reveals anything, you did not already know other than the details of what the Chinese may or may not have done with the bodies. The drone search made for an interesting read, but it all felt mostly like a big build up to something that just fizzled out.
