Recent Acquisitions #14
Nov. 22nd, 2013 02:39 pmFlea market today, as my sister's here to chauffeur us around. A present for someone (not going to say who or what!) and Chris Bonington's Everest: The Hard Way. My immediate reaction: there's an easy way?
Looking through the book while we were waiting for lunch to be served in the cafe, I noticed the entire expedition team was male. Well, it was the 1970s.
After a bit of discussion about this book and Everest and Into Thin Air, my sister asked if I'd read Touching the Void by Joe Simpson. I haven't, so that's another for the wishlist.
