To Everest Via Antarctica Climbing Solo on the Highest Peak on Each of the Worlds Seven Continents

This is the amazing story of seven summits solo -- how an American living in New Zealand set out to climb the highest peak on each of the world's seven continents, the first person to do so. Robert Mads Anderson was to complete this extraordinary saga of courage, skill & imagination by climbing Mt. Everest solo & without oxygen in late 1995. En route to Everest, Anderson had climbed solo all the other highest summits on six continents. In the end, after several previous attempts, bad weather in early Sep. 1995 kept him from the summit of Everest. This book is the story of those climbs. But it is also a travel adventure book, full of color & wit.
