Published by Rocky Mountain Books Canada, 2008, 1st Canadian Edition, Insc, D/w, Fine. There are two stories in this book – her husband George’s solo sail across the Atlantic in 1981, and the other of her stepson Blair, cameraman for the CBC on the fateful 1982 Canadian Everest Expedition, where Blair and others lost their lives in the Khumbu Icefall. Using tape recordings, diaries, letters, and first-hand reports, Griffiths’ memoir tells of both expeditions and George’s ultimate trip to the Khumbu to say goodbye to his son.
