The complete text and the only reprint of the three classics of mountaineering that Bradford Washburn wrote as a teenager: AMONG THE ALPS WITH BRADFORD, BRADFORD ON MOUNT WASHINGTON and BRADFORD ON MOUNT FAIRWEATHER.
Read about Bradford Washburn’s extraordinary teen adventures in this collection of three rare early works—back in print after nearly 70 years. From precocious teen in the French Alps to expedition leader in Alaska at age 20, in each book Washburn reveals a boyish clarity of purpose and enthusiasm, offering insight into the incredibly accomplished author, photographer, and mapmaker that he would become. Illustrated with original photographs, this collection is an invaluable contribution to the history of mountaineering, as well as immensely fun reading for anyone who loves a good adventure.
