Title: Amazing terrain & amazing people
Product review: A facinating read of a little known history. The original explorers of these remote mountains were a motely collection of eccentrics. The author brings these characters to life with a dry sense of humour & an eye for detail as well as thouroughly researched history. It is however the description of this amazing landscape that steals the show. The description of Mt.Nangar Parbat "the true horror of the Himalays" with its 26,000 foot sheer cliff face is mind boggling. This is a must read for anyone interested in mountaineering & its history.
