In a monumental work of history and adventure, Davis asks not whether George Mallory was the first to reach the summit of Everest, but rather why he kept climbing on that fateful day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Retail Maharaj","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49173955936560,"sku":"Prakash_9780099563839","price":959.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/retail-maharaj-book-default-title-into-the-silence-the-great-war-mallory-and-the-conquest-of-everest-39005060956464.jpg?v=1753018951","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/into-the-silence-the-great-war-mallory-and-the-conquest-of-everest","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
