Detailed Product Description
London or New York, 1980, revised edition (paperback was 1st). 223 pp, 16 ills. Account of a 1974 climbing camp in the USSR when many climbers died. Hardcover, DJ, Near Fine.
 
SIGNED by John Evans.
 
This was the first time the Pamirs had been open to foreigners in decades, so the team comprised some of the best American climbers of the day: John Rosekelley, Bob Craig, Gary Ullin, John Marts, Fred Stanley, John Evans, Allen Steck, Frank Sarnquist, Bruce Carson, Molly Higgins, Pete Schoening, Chris Kopczynski, Jeff Lowe, Jed Williamson, Marty Hooey, Peter Lev, etc. One American, Gary Ullin died in an avalanche, and eight female Soviet climbers in one team also died.  
 
Bob Craig has made many ascents in Colorado and the Tetons. He was director of the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies for more than a decade and later became president of the Keystone Center for Continuing Education. He wrote the excellent mountaineering book Storm & Sorrow In The High Pamirs which is his firsthand account of the disasterous joint USSR-USA climbing expedition in the Soviet Pamirs in 1974.
