Description

The Climber's Fireside Book. Compiled by Wilfrid Noyce. 'Wilfrid Noyce left his manuscript at his publisher's office a few days before he set out on the expedition to the Pamirs that was to cost him his life. No mountaineer could bequeath a finer legacy. The selection tells us a great deal about Noyce himself and how he was drawn by the challenge of mountaineering. The insight which this most esoteric of all sports provides of Nature and of the men has been a prolific source of images for poets abd authors for centuries. Noyce has has selected writings that range wide, both historically and geographically.' An Ex Library Book with all the usual stamps and marking but still in a tidy condition.
