No, I've never read that one - I'll have to look for it. This one is called Endurance - an epic of polar adventure - mine is a Norton Paperback, 2000 - amazon
Not quite mountaineering disaster books, but still may interest you: Endurance - there are two versions, one is the captain's journal and the other is a nonfiction novel; and No Picnic on Mt Kenya is the autobiography of a man who broke out of a WWII POW camp in order to climb Mt Kenya and then snuck back into the camp
Two of greatest real life survival stories;
In the heart of the sea, the true story of the stove in whale ship Essex, the tale that inspired Melville to write Moby Dick.
Endurance, Earnest Shackleton and his crews almost two year struggle for survival after being shipwrecked in Antarctica. The ships photographer managed to document much of their struggle with chilling (no pun intended) clarity.
Fiction, IIMHO, it's hard to find any survival story to top Jack London, Love of Life.
Enjoy...
