  • Hillary, Edmund Percival •fi Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand
    Hillary, Edmund Percival – Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/6h1/hillary-edmund-percival/print Hillary, Edmund Percival by Shaun Barnett Early life On 29 May 1953 New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Nepali Tenzing Norgay, as part of a British team, reached the 8,848-metre summit of Mt Everest, the world’s highest mountain. This was the culmination of 12 serious attempts since 1921, including nine British expeditions. It coincided with the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, adding to the media attention generated by the royal event. Family background Climbing Everest was a life-changing experience for a man with a humble background. Edmund Percival Hillary, born on 20 July 1919 at Auckland, was the second of three children of Percival Augustus Hillary and his wife, Gertrude Hillary, née Clark. The family lived in Tūākau, in rural South Auckland. Percy Hillary founded and edited the Tuakau District News, and as a sideline, took up beekeeping on land allotted to him after service in the First World War. He believed in healthy eating and exercise and had strong egalitarian beliefs. Percy was also a strict disciplinarian, and the young Edmund found his beatings for misdemeanours humiliating and often unjust. However, in his mother, Gertrude (a teacher), he found a more gentle and nurturing parent. Education After attending Tūākau Primary School Edmund went to Auckland Grammar School. Small and shy with a poor self-image, he nursed secret desires for adventure, and read books about mountains and the Antarctic on the long train journeys to and from school.

  • Mountaineering by New Zealanders 1954 -1993
    NORMAN HARDIE Mountaineering by New Zealanders 1954 -1993 (Plates 54, 55) This is the second of two articles on the history of mountaineering by New Zealanders. Scott Russell's article, The Centenary of the New Zealand Alpine Club', covering the period 1891-1953, appeared in AJ97, 161-163, 1992/93. In 1954 the New Zealand Alpine Club sent an expedition to the Barun area in Nepal to attempt the first ascent of Makalu. Sir Edmund Hillary was the leader, Sir Charles Evans hi§ deputy, and also from Everest 1953 was George Lowe. Seven others, all new to the Himalaya, made up the team. Among these was Mike Ball from Britain who, like Evans, was invited for his talents, but also as an expression of gratitude for past invitations to New Zealanders on British expeditions. Two had been on the 1951 E~erest reconnaissance, two were on Everest in 1953 and three­ Riddiford, Hillary and Lowe - were on Cho Oyu in 1952. On the initial venture to higher altitudes in the Barun, Jim McFarlane fell into a crevasse and his hands and feet were badly frostbitten. After a few days itbecame evident that he would have to be carried to Kathmandu. Meanwhile, a not very spirited prod was made at Makalu by the route later used by the French. Three left with McFarlane and the remaining six formed three mobile groups which between them climbed 19 peaks over 6000m, the most notable being Baruntse (7129m) and Pethangtse (6730m). When the monsoon began most went home, but Evans and I travelled west to Kodari keeping near the Tibetan border.

  • BODEN BLACK (A Novel)
    BODEN BLACK (A Novel) and WITH AXE AND PEN IN THE NEW ZEALAND ALPS: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN OVERSEAS AND NEW ZEALAND WRITTEN ACCOUNTS OF CLIMBING MOUNT COOK 1882-1920 AND THE EMERGENCE OF A NEW ZEALAND VOICE IN MOUNTAINEERING LITERATURE BY JURA (LAURENCE) FEARNLEY A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2012 1 ABSTRACT This thesis has two components: creative and critical. The creative component is the novel Boden Black. It is a first person narrative, imagined as a memoir, and traces the life of its protagonist, Boden Black, from his childhood in the late 1930s to adulthood in the present day. The plot describes various significant encounters in the narrator’s life: from his introduction to the Mackenzie Basin and the Mount Cook region in the South Island of New Zealand, through to meetings with mountaineers and ‘lost’ family members. Throughout his journey from child to butcher to poet, Boden searches for ways to describe his response to the natural landscape. The critical study is titled With Axe and Pen in the New Zealand Alps. It examines the published writing of overseas and New Zealand mountaineers climbing at Aoraki/Mount Cook between 1882 and 1920. I advance the theory that there are stylistic differences between the writing of overseas and New Zealand mountaineers and that the beginning of a distinct New Zealand mountaineering voice can be traced back to the first accounts written by New Zealand mountaineers attempting to reach the summit of Aoraki/Mount Cook.
