Pujante, a Spanish neurosurgeon, has climbed Cho Oyu, Everest, as well as the Seven Summits and has written numerous books on climbing. Following his ascent of Cho Oyu he proposed a dual expedition to Aconcagua and Mount Vinson for 1991. On Aconcagua he became lost for three days at 7000m, resulting in frostbite. Gauging the medical risks he then went to the Antarctic for a successful ascent of Vinson. This book is about both climbs. In Spanish, no English translation.
