商品簡介
The once indomitable peaks of the Himalaya, which have long served to isolate Tibet from its neighbors, have meanwhile become the ultimate test for serious Western mountain climbers. Each year, increasing numbers seek glory and an escape from the drudgery of their lives---an answer to life's eternal riddle in the world's highest mountain range. Roughly 2,500 Tibetans, [however], flee their country annually in a brutal journey over the Himalaya....
The first gunshot [at Cho Oyu Advance Base Camp] went largely unnoticed by the climbers. Most were still in their tents. The sun had risen, but it hadn't been up long enough to blunt the knifing cold. But the subsequent percussive pops split the thin mountain air. Climbers had blearily unzipped their tents, craning to see the commotion. The smell of cordite from spent rounds of ammunition overtook the scent of juniper.... In the distance, [Chinese] soldiers were firing on a line of people snaking through the snow.---from Murder in the High Himalaya
