Abstract
A remarkable account of the grueling journey to the summit of Mount Logan. Naturalist and cinematographer, Hamilton Mack Laing, marched into the Alaskan wilderness alongside weathered guides and hardened, experienced mountaineers. From Laing's diaries, we learn how capturing the summit pits the daring adventurers in a struggle with nature, changing them irrevocably as they became part of the environment that tested them. -- Provided by publisher.
