«Ballooning Over Everest» is Leo Dickinson's photographic record of flying over Everest in a balloon, published by Random House UK in hardcover (160 pages, in English, 1993).
A team of Australian and British pioneers, led by Leo Dickinson, devoted years of preparation to a bold goal: to view the summit of Everest from a hot-air balloon. The book documents the challenges, emotions and cooperation of the group, culminating in a historic flight of less than an hour that offered an unprecedented perspective on the Himalayas.
First edition published in London in 1993 by Jonathan Cape. Includes color photographs of the expedition.
For those interested in aerial sports, exploration adventures and mountain chronicles, with a photographic and documentary focus.
