Les quatorze 8000 de Sophie Lavaud
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

À l'occasion de la réussite de Sophie Lavaud, première des Suissesses et des Français et Canadiens à fouler la cime des quatorze sommets de plus de 8 000 mètres, voici un beau livre inédit sur les plus hautes montagnes de la Terre !En parvenant au sommet du Nanga Parbat (8 126 m) le 26 juin 2023, Sophie Lavaud est devenue la première Suissesse, LE premier Français et LE premier Canadien à gravir les quatorze sommets de plus de 8 000 m. Point d'orgue d'un périple de onze ans et de vingt-trois expéditions sur les plus hautes montagnes de l'Himalaya (Népal, Tibet, Pakistan), cette ascension brise la malédiction française du grand chelem himalayen. Étonnamment, malgré le haut niveau de l'himalayisme hexagonal, aucun de ceux ayant tenté la collection des sommets n'y était encore parvenu...Sophie Lavaud n'est pas une alpiniste professionnelle et n'est pas issue du sérail de la performance, sa réussite n'en est que plus étonnante et attachante. Son périple est l'occasion de (re)découvrir chaque géant himalayen, de s'immerger dans le monde particulier des aficionados de la très haute altitude.Croisant points de vue originaux, contextualisation et témoignages personnels, Sophie Lavaud et François Damilano proposent une vision contemporaine de l'himalayisme sur les voies classiques des quatorze plus hautes montagnes de la Terre.Quatorze 8000, quatorze occasions d'appréhender les enjeux humains et sportifs qui se jouent au pays de l'oxygène rare.Quatorze 8000, quatorze chapitres richement illustrés et racontés pour s'immerger dans le grand Himalaya.
