Letters of George Herbert Leigh-Mallory published

The letters of George Herbert Leigh-Mallory (1886 โ€“1924), mountaineer who participated in the first 3 British Mount Everest expeditions, have been published on the Magdalene College, Cambridge website.

The bulk of the collection is made up of correspondence between Mallory and his wife Ruth from the time of their engagement in 1914 until his death on Everest in 1924. Among them is the very last letter he wrote to her before his final Everest summit attempt.
