Reinhold Messner Signs Books, Ice Axes
On January 20, 2012 we met with the great Reinhold Messner, who generously signed numerous copies of all his titles for our bookshop! All the new items will be added to this website by January 31, 2012, and can be viewed at this link: http://bit.ly/yUxsbL.
Reinhold has met with us every few years since the early 1990s, including in 2004 when we travelled to Italy, just as he was building his 5 Mountain Museums in Northern Italy. If you plan a trip to Switzerland, German or Italy, you should make time to visit some of his museums celebrating mountains, mountaineering, mountain people, Tibet, art, and other subjects that interest him. Please visit his website here: http://www.reinhold-messner.de/ and here: http://www.messner-mountain-museum.it/
Fred Beckey Signs His New Book
Fred Beckey's 100 Favorite Climbs
Fred Beckey has written a monumental book on over 100 of his favorite climbs, out of thousands he has done. Not restricting himself to his first ascents, he recalls in the format of Roper and Steck's 50 Classic Climbs of North America, with route information, color photos and even topos, his choice of the best climbs he has done.
This is a book that all collectors will want to own, and we will have signed copies available for sale before February 8, 2012, at no extra charge for the signature! The price may go up after that date, so please place your order as soon as you can. Here is the listing:
