Detailed Product Description
London, 1986, 1st UK edition. 192 pp, b/w photos. Larger paperback. Near Fine to Fine. 

Essays on all aspects of the mountain experience. Profiles of famous climbers, this book explores the mountain scene, the pleasures and companionship of the mountains. This is a book that climbers will like, but perhaps only British climbers.
 
It's a conglomeration of 37 essays that appeared between 1968 and 1985 in various British journals dealing with climbing. The writing varies in tone from artsy, adjective-laden prose to gripping dramatic narrative. Its focus is narrowly limited to Great Britain, more specifically to Wales.
