Detailed Product Description
SIGNED & INSCRIBED ''To Alan, Cheers! Pat Morrow June /94'' on the title page. Loosely inserted is a postcard from Pat to Alan about Pat's climbing trip in the USA. Canada, 1986, 1st edition. 175 pp, 100+ color photos, Includes route diagrams. Larger Hardcover with DJ, Like New. Hardcover is rare, never sold in bookstores. See below. We have had very few copies of this book as a hardcover. They were advertised only in Equinox Magazine in Canada and never sold in bookstores or mail order. Nobody had any idea that doing the Seven Summits would appeal to more than elite climbers. Or, to put it another way, doing the Seven Summits has given the average climber a way to achieve elite status. The real barricade to completing the Seven Summits was and is Mount Everest. Pat Morrow was the first person to climb the seven summits with Carstenz of New Guinea as the Australia-South East Asia-Pacific highpoint. Wikipedia is doing a pretty good job of tracking all the permutations of the ''Seven Summits,'' and says ''231 persons have climbed the Messner list, while 234 have completed the Bass list. 416 have done either the Bass or Messner list.'' These numbers may be a few years old. Pat finished climbing all 8 on his list on August 5, 1986 To see where the Seven Summits lists are nowadays, start here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Summits Or here: "Statistics, Facts & figures of all 7summiteers: Carstensz, Kosciuszko and combined lists". 7summits.com My fun fact: I am sure many climbers and readers have trouble pronouncing Kosciuszko. Being from Brooklyn, we New Yorkers had no problem, as we had a bridge named after the man, and all New Yorkers were required by law to be able to pronounce Polish names.
