paperback. 2011. 358pp, paperback, rippling to some pages from previous water contact, Good+. The Himalayan Club, founded in 1928, is one of the earliest clubs to have been established in the sub-continent. In the pre-war years, every expedition to the Himalaya and Karakoram was assisted by the Club members - right from clearing baggage from the docks, to assisting them with advice, routes and purchase of provisions and selecting Sherpas and porters. After Everest (1953), the number of expeditions increased in frequency. Nepal opened its doors to foreigners, and in India mountaineering caught on as a sport. The role of the Himalayan Club has modified to an extent to keep pace with the changing times. A plethora of climbing clubs and trekking-cum-mountaineering agencies have taken up their own localised activities. The Club, therefore, continues in its main mission - To encourage and assist Himalayan travel and exploration, and to extend knowledge of the Himalaya and adjoining mountain ranges through science, art, literature and sport. It offers a meeting ground for its members - talks, slide-shows and films are organised regularly; the Club offers scholarships to the courses run by the three mountaineering institutes in India, and produces the Himalayan Journal and the Himalayan Club Newsletter. These publications have now been recognised as the foremost authority in climbing in the Himalaya, Karakoram and the Hindu Kush. The Himalayan Journal Published since 1929, it is the most authentic and authoritative reference on the activities in the Himalaya. It covers climbing, explorations, scientific observations and almost all aspects related to the Himalaya. The contributors include some of the best writers and climbers active in the range. Glacier Books are experienced and professional booksellers. We take pride in offering carefully described books and excellent customer service.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Contents: Acknowledgements. Author's note. Introduction. 1. Spring. 2. Monsoon. 3. Winter. "In the Kumaon region of the Himalayas, the mountains are believed to be 'Dev Bhoomi' -- the abode of the Gods. In a little village here, under the shadow of Trishul and Nanda Devi, Pamela Chatterjee has found a home, after decades spent in the big cities of the plains. She lives among the villagers as one of them, sharing their daily lives. Here, farmers toil in the fields and hope that the weather is kind to them; women are isolated during their monthly 'unclean period'; and young brides move to a different village, where they spend more time under the watchful eyes of their mother-in-law than with their husbands. Yet, as the seasons change from the long spring straight to the monsoons and then the bitterly cold winter, some old beliefs make way for new ones. Farmers agree to put aside ancient cures and adopt new scientific procedures to counter the rapidly spreading foot-and-mouth disease in their livestock, older women struggle with pens as their children show them how to sign their names, and people come together to lay pipes to bring water to an isolated hamlet. Full of many such memorable vignettes, listen to the Mountains blends observations of the flora and fauna with descriptions of the culture, traditions and rituals of Kumaon, and is enriched by the wonderfully intimate portrayals of the local people. Adding to the charm of the book are Catherine Addor-Confino's brilliant illustrations." (jacket). …
