Name : Paths Of Glory
Author: Jeffrey Archer
ISBN : 9780330504256
Summary : It is a journey of a prodigious man's life who dared to achieve what was considered nearly the impossible in his times.
My opinion : Jeffrey Archer has written this one in a very concise manner. Although this is based on a true story (which I found out after reading the book), Jeffrey Archer has written it in a way, which does not make it seem just like a biography of George Mallory. Someone who is not aware of the intricacies of mountaineering, can get a nice idea of how much thought is put into scaling mountains. An enjoyable read and would definitely recommend everyone to have a go at it.
How I got it : Bought it.
Will I buy it for my collection: I have it.

The best part about this book is that it is unlike any of the books written by archer to date ;).On a more serious note, the book has been brilliantly written without any exaggerations, which can easily happen in such cases.It is so well written that it doesn't seem like a novel.in fact, it seems as if George Mallory (the main character) is himself giving an account of his experiences.
