Get an insider's view of the Sherpa world as Mr. Norgay tells a story of Everest unlike any told before--a tale of a family, a mountain and a people.

  • Norgay, Jamling Tenzing, with Broughton Coburn; forward by His Holiness the Dalai Lama
  • Softcover; 316 pages; black-and-white and color photographs
  • HarperCollins Publishers; copyright 2002
  • Norgay interweaves the story of his own ascent in the 1996 disaster on Everest with little-known stories from his father's historic climb
  • Learn about similar physical and personal challenges both father and son grappled with as they pressed on against extreme circumstances

"Touching My Father's Soul" is the first modern account of the Everest experience from the unheard voice of its indigenous people, revealing a fascinating and profound world that few--even many who have made it to the top--have ever seen.

Made in USA.

    Comments about Touching My Father's Soul:

    As an Everest junkie, I had to pick up this book. I loved reading about climbing Everest and the impact it has on the Sherpa people. There were times I cried, and times I laughed reading Mr. Norgay's story.

    Pick this one up!!
