- Abstract
- In the 1960s, California's Yosemite Valley was the center of the rock climbing universe. Young nonconformists -- many of them the finest rock climbers in the world -- channeled their energy toward the largely untouched walls and cracks. Soon climbers from around the globe were coming to Camp 4 -- gathering spot for the creators of the "Golden Age" of Yosemite climbing -- to see whgat all the fuss is about. -- From the back cover

- Abstract
- In 1923, a reporter asked George Mallory why he wanted to summit Mount Everest. "Because it's there." Today the question "why do this?" is included in nearly every mountaineering story of interview. Meanwhile, interest in climbing is steadily on the rise, from commerical mountaineering and climbing walls in university gyms to corporate workplaces to the flood of spectacular climbing imagery in advertising, cinema, and social media. [...] Taking the degradation of Everest and the success of Free Solo as its starting point, Mountains and Desire chases after what remains of this pursuit -- marred by its colonial history, coopted by national chauvinism, ableism, and the capitalist compulsion to unlimited growth -- for both climbers and their fans. -- From back cover
- Contents
- 1. The ends of desire -- 2. Who will marry you now? -- 3. Just because someone has done it doesn't mean it's humanly possible -- 4. Everest traffic and the economy of walking -- 5. Climbing technotopia, or: Did free solo really happen? -- 6. Gestures of climbing -- 7. The last problem of the Himalaya.

- Abstract
- A new collection of outdoor writing from one of fly fishing’s most popular essayists. Drawn from 55 years of excessive obsession with trout, water, streams, and flies, this collection of essays from Canada’s most widely read fly-fishing author since Roderick Haig-Brown reveals the depth of engagement that this sport engenders. Poised and polished words reveal the flaws and virtues of humanity, the strength of Mother Nature, the beautiful mystery that is a wild trout, and the obsessed’s inexplicable need to outsmart a creature with a brain the size of a pea. Fly fishing is considered perhaps the most reflective and graceful of outdoor pursuits, and author Jim McLennan agrees – for the most part. Trout Tracks includes pieces on fly-fishing people and fly-fishing places, plus stories of quiet successes and loud failures, in sum revealing the soul of “the quiet sport.” You won’t learn from this book how to cast farther or tie a knot faster, but if you’ve ever fly fished – or if you want to – you’ll smile and understand more clearly the seduction of wild trout in wild places. -- From publisher
- Contents
- 1. Places -- 2. Bugs, real and fake -- 3. How -- 4. Navel gazing -- 5. The silly side -- 6. At the water -- 7. People 8. Aging (gracefully, more or less).
