Detailed Product Description
London, Geoffrey Bles, 1947, 1st UK edition. 160 pp, b/w photos. Blue cloth hardcover with chipped dust jacket. Both book and jacket are damp stained. A Good, readable copy of this classic. Noycewas a prolific author, and this was his first book. Much more uncommon than South Col and all his later books. THe torn DJ and other flaws take a toll on its collectibility, but its low price makes it a candidate for taking on a trip when you will have time to read in your tent, and if the book gets hurt some more, it's not a problem. A climbing memoir of some of Noyce's most memorable moments, including leading climbs in England, his seasons in the Alps (Mont Blanc), and a brief visit to the Himalayas, including lower level climbs of peaks in Garwhal and Sikkim (including a chapter of diary entries from the latter. The author concludes by trying to address why climbers do what they do.
