On the Edge of Europe: Mountaineering in the Caucasus
No Customer Reviews
Most accounts of Caucasus climbing have hitherto been buried away in club journals and magazines. On the Edge of Europe is the first book to collect together the best of the Caucasus writing in English and culminates in Mick Fowler's account of his remarkable new route on Ushba North with Victor Saunders in 1986. The longer self- contained extracts are a history of a century's climbing attitudes and fashions in themselves. But they are threaded in to a survey of climbing in the range which gives full recognition to the part played by other European climbers, notably the Germans and the Russians.
