Into Thin Air

I first read this book right after I got home from my mission. I really liked it then, and when I came across it at DI, I bought it and it has been sitting on my shelf, waiting for me to read it. It is by Jon Krakauer, and I like the way he writes. I haven't read anything else by him, although Into The Wild is now on my list of "what to read". Into Thin Air is a personal account of the Mt. Everest disaster in 1996. I didn't hear anything about it when it happened, but that is because I was on my mission. It is a very interesting book, and I am sure that I will read it again in a few years.
