Sir Edmund Hillary & The People of Everest

Through personal interviews and intimate photos, Keiser and Ramsay begin with a vivid recounting of the conquest of Everest and go on to beautifully chronicle Hillary's humanitarian and environmental efforts over the following half century. His work on behalf of the Sherpas included raising funds, building schools, setting up two hospitals, and opening 12 medical clinics. His deep love, respect, and concern for the Sherpa people was unwavering, and his commitment shines through in whatever project was at hand.
