Detailed Product Description
Canada, Alpine Club of Canada, 2004, 1st edition. 24 pages, b/w photos.
Magazine size stapled softcover. May have damp stain to top edge. Very Good to Near Fine.
Sharon Wood is best known as the first woman from the Americas to climb Mount Everest. In mountaineering Sharon Wood found a pursuit equal to her intensity and emotional courage. In coming to terms with the nature of peaks, Sharon discovered others who were not afraid to put their lives on the line in exchange for a glimpse of their deeper selves.
She also found she possessed the ability to solve ever more complex and demanding climbing problems. While engaging in the most intense forms of inward and outward exploration, Sharon Wood and her climbing partners shaped an entire generation of Canadian alpinism.
Home is Where the Mountains Are
is their story.
