  No ropes. No second chances. 
  No guarantee of survival. 
  On 27 May 1995, at just 22 years old, James Allen stood on the summit of Mount Everest’s unforgiving North Side, widely regarded as the deadliest route in the world. 
  Climbing unroped and alone, he battled freezing winds and the thin air of the death zone, becoming the youngest Westerner, and the youngest Australian, New Zealander, and Briton, to reach the top. 
  That night, five climbers set out. Two turned back. Three reached the summit. 
  Then came the descent, a brutal fight for survival. Above 8,000 metres, one climber collapsed, and James was thrust into a desperate bid to get them both down alive. 
  Stranded for two nights without a sleeping bag, he battled exhaustion, frostbite, and the crushing grip of altitude, every step a gamble between life and death. 
  Everest: The Descent is a raw, gripping account of triumph and survival at the very edge of human endurance. 
  A true story of courage, risk, and resilience on the roof of the world.

He is best remembered as a writer of poems and hymns such as "Come, My Way, My Truth, My Life" and "The King of Love My Shepherd Is." (Summary from Wikipedia)

  Khabaar - An Immigrant Journey...

  Khabaar is a food memoir and personal narrative that braids the global journeys of South Asian food through immigration, migration, and indenture. Focusing on chefs, home cooks, and food stall owners, the book questions what it means to belong and what does belonging in a new place look like in the foods carried over from the old country? These questions are integral to the author’s own immigrant journey to America as a daughter of Indian refugees (from what’s now Bangladesh to India during the 1947 Partition of India); as a woman of color in science; as a woman who left an abusive marriage; and as a woman who keeps her parents’ memory alive through her Bengali food.
