Stephen Venables s most recent book, Ollie, was a Sunday Times bestseller. He has now written a full autobiography which explores how and more importantly why he became a mountaineer, and reveals a series of never-recorded adventures on several continents. At its climax he revisits his dramatic, near-fatal success without oxygen on the Kangshung face of Everest, described by Reinhold Messner as the most adventurous in Everest s history and by Lord Hunt as one of the most remarkable ordeals from which men or women have returned alive . As Venables writes- Although we didn t go seeking deliberately an epic near-death experience, it did turn out that way the ultimate endurance test for which all the previous adventures seemed, retrospectively, to be a preparation.
