Detailed Product Description
Germany, Verlag Hallwag Bern, 1961, 3rd ed. 232 p., 34 b/w photos. Hardcover with foxing to covers. Interior is fine. Near Fine. Some of the largest classic first ascents are led by Alexander Burgener (1846-1910), such as the Zmuttgrat on the Matterhorn, the Gr�pon in the Mont Blanc area and the Mittelegigrat on the Eiger in the descent. Famous alpinists (Mummery, D�chy, G��feldt and others) committed him to their mountain trips, not only in the Swiss Alps, but as far as the Caucasus. Alexander Burgener, as a person and as a guide, comes alive in these pages: warm-hearted, calm and with his own sense of humor as the son, husband, father and rope companion of his tourists, safe, unshakable and bold as a guide, familiar with all circumstances and moods of the mountains.
