Sample Book Insights: #1 There were many who thought it was my duty to make immediate amends by post-dating Corti’s climb, rehabilitating him. But I felt my duty was to be a true friend to all the world’s climbers, particularly the younger generation. #2 The confusion in Corti’s report was not due to the intense nervous strain and nights of delirium on the Face, but rather because his mental and spiritual powers failed to match so great a demand on them. #3 The bivouac spot above the Spider has been named after Corti, not after the two men who in all probability pitched and secured the little tent to ensure his safety. The fact remains that this spot has been named after Corti, not after the two men who in all probability pitched and secured the little tent to ensure his safety. #4 The foursome’s decision to join the Italians on the rope was unexplained. They were only on the lower third of the Face, and there was no earthly reason for it. They were also only on the Eiger to help a friend, which is why they gave him their only chance of survival.
