The White Spider is an outstanding book in the mountaineering genré. It tells the story of the Eigerwand, the appallingly steep and difficult north face of the Eiger, from the unsuccessful , and fatal attempt on it in 1935 to the sixteenth and successful one in 1961. Harrer was a member of the first party to successfully climb the north face in 1938.
