Title: Sensitive and well-researched, highlights some important issues related to the place of women in mountaineering
Review: As she pieces together the lives of women known for their extraordinary achievements in the world of mountaineering, Jennifer Jordan brings the reader to consider the role played by gender discrimination in their careers and in the events that have led to their tragic deaths. But Jordan is too sensitive and respectful to draw a straight line between gender-based issues and individual fate, she lets you get there on your own with her skillful account. Well-researched this book addresses a topic that few mountaineering books dare to address, so focussed that they are on the men's achievements.
