hey guys,
i am back with an amazing book called "path of glory" which is a truly inspired novel.i wont say this is the best written by Archer,but it shows how a person can be so passionate in one thing with out even caring for his life and especially for his most beloved wife.
The story is about a man called "George Mallory" who is so passionate in climbing right from his childhood.He is from Britain.His main aim is to hike the highest mountain in the world Mount Everest which heights around 29000 feet.He wants to be the first man in the world to reach to that summit.This story happened in 1922,and no one knows until now that George Mallory reached that height.The couldn't find his body after he made his attempt in 1922.
The author just goes with his autobiography.When i first started the book i really felt bored.The story starts right from his childhood and how he realized his inborn talent as a climber and how far he succeeded in order to fulfill it.But i likes the small point in this book.George Mallory loves his wife and the author presents their love in the form of letters and i just loved the love story which happened between them.
On the whole,to try different i really recommend this book to read.Last, but not least the author also gave a nice view about INDIA in 1900's.
