Detailed Product Description
UK, 1984, 1st edition. 220 pp, ill. Climbing humor. (We actually sold this specific copy as a new book in 1985 to a customer who sold it back to us in 2008, unread). DJ, as New.
  
"Years pass without any humorous climbing books coming on to the market and then two appear within months of each other. Unsworth's collection contains many old favourites such as In Hanging Garden Gully readily available in other anthologies — but then you couldn't really leave such a memorable piece out just because it is available elsewhere, could you. Personally, even though you have to share things out, I could have done with more Tilman, Patey and Kevin Fitzgerald at the expense of some which, to my taste, don't come into the category of humour at all."
G. W. T, „Alpine Journal” 1985, p. 277
