On 14th July 1865, two competing rope teams made their way to the summit of the Matterhorn. The mountain was considered invincible until Italians and Britons had the iron will to climb the colossus in the middle of the 19th century. The team around the British alpinist Edward Whymper won the race. It was sensational that for the first time people boarded the Matterhorn for good. But his rough aura was to take revenge: when the men de-scended the mountain, four of the seven climbers fell into the abyss, which is why the first ascent heralded the end of the Golden Age of Alpinism. What exactly happened in the crash? This commemorative volume keeps the memory alive.

Über Ferdinand Kämpfer

Ferdinand Kämpfer was introduced to the music of the band Queen as a child. After seeing the video for "A KIND OF MAGIC" for the first time, he decided to make Roger Taylor his official idol and also learn to play drums. He was primarily concerned with turning the stick. But playing has also survived to this day and is great fun. Thus, in 2020, the YouTube channel Fernando Luchador was created, covering songs by Queen and other bands.
After so many years, Kämpfer knows the band's history almost by heart, which is how this book came about.
