Detailed Product Description

England, Pelham, 1995, 6th impression. 390 pp, 400+ color and b/w photos, illustrations. Hardcover with dust jacket. Fine

This book, well and thoroughly done, covers every aspect of climbing, from rock climbing, bouldering, ice climbing, to Alpine style and expeditionary climbing in the remote ranges of the world. One of the finest and most up-to-date manuals we have seen. Endorsed by the British Mountaineering Council with a foreword by Hamish MacInnes.

This is a climbing handbook, encompassing the history of the sport, the equipment needed, acquisition of skills, rescue, winter and alpine climbing and hillwalking. It describes the principles and methods of movement on rock, snow and ice, and the correct use of equipment and forms of protection. In many cases a variety of relevant techniques are detailed to allow the reader to select the system appropiate to his individual needs. All the techniques of modern climbing are covered, from those required on road-side crags to those needed on the more ambitious ascents of major mountains and faces. The text is accompanied by photographs and drawings.
