paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. "My Climbs in the Alps and Caucasus" is Fred Mummery's rousing and humorous account of his European climbing career. His book gives a flavour of the heroic era of mountaineering's beginnings - he was decades ahead of his time in realising that the essence of mountaineering lies not in ascending a peak, but in struggling with and overcoming difficulties. Dispensing with the use of guides, he laid the future for climbing as we know it today."My Climbs." is both a joyful, life-affirming tale of adventure and also a manifesto outlining Mummery's radical approach to climbing mountains. It's a fine legacy from a visionary mountaineer and should be on every Alpinist's or climber's bookshelf.

Although most notable for his many and varied first ascents put up in the Alps, Mummery, along with J. Norman Collie, Geoffrey Hastings, and two Gurkhas are also the first men in recorded history to have attempted to summit one of the Himalayan eight-thousanders. Their innovative, light-weight endeavour upon Nanga Parbat in 1895 proved ill-fated; Mummery and both Gurkhas died in an avalanche whilst reconnoitering the mountain's Rakhiot Face. Mummery left behind him a legacy of some of the most well-regarded routes in the Alps, and also, in his book My Climbs in the Alps and Caucasus, (1895) (this title, translated) one of the enduring classics of mountaineering literature.
