Climber's Choice: The Best Climbing Writers Present Their Work Book

The ultimate anthology for climbing enthusiasts, adventure readers, and anyone who appreciates excellent writing Climber's Choice brings together writings by more than 20 of the world's top climbing authors. Editor Pat Ament­­himself a world-class climber and critically acclaimed writer­­asked his colleagues to select those pieces of which they are most proud. The result is an unprecedented convocation of men and women who have conquered many of the most forbidding mountains and rock faces in the world and who write about these experiences in ways that transfix even the nonclimbers among us. Contributors include Chris Bonington, Greg Child, Joe Simpson, John Long, Alison Osius, Steven Venables, Walter Bonatti, and Paul Pritchard, to name just a few. Among them they have won four Boardman Tasker awards, two Banff Mountain Literature awards, and an American Alpine Club award. Each essay features a photo of its author and the author's thoughts on the special significance of the piece, together with a context-setting introduction from Ament.Read More
