What happened to the two men last seen “going strong” for the peak of Mount
Everest in 1924? The Mystery of Mallory and Irvine (Pimlico, £12.50, ISBN
0 7126 7414 4) is based on one of the most famous puzzles in British history.
Authors Tom Holzel and Audrey Salkeld, both climbers of Everest, have their own
ideas, based on Mallory’s character. They suggest where the bodies might be now
and that Irvine’s might once have been found. An enthralling, tragic story.
