I'm not sure of what, though: AN Australian climber was robbed through interference by Britain's Royal Geographical Society of the chance to be the first man to conquer Mt Everest. These claims are made by best-selling British author Jeffrey Archer as part of the writer's research for his new novel, Paths Of Glory. According to Archer, experienced Australian mountaineer George Finch was set to accompany his regular climbing partner, George Mallory, a Briton, on a bid to conquer Everest in 1924 before the society intervened, The Daily Telegraph reports. http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,25081177-2,00.html
