display_description
Presents an atlas of eight of the world's greatest mountains on all its continents. Clear, accessible texts by Robin Jacobs break down the geography of each mountain, the history of its conquest, tales of local populations and indigenous mythologies, and finally, how best to climb it. The routes to the summit are explained, as well as the individual climbing challenges posed by each mountain. An introductory chapter includes information on how the different types of mountains are formed, the history of mountain exploration, the dangers of mountaineering, key terminology, climbing gear and how to tie knots.
