- From a youthful solo of the Matterhorn, through historic first ascents, hunting for treasure, inventing equipment and pioneering mountain rescue, Hamish MacInnes recalls a lifetime of epic adventures in this eclectic selection of tales. His restless curiosity and pragmatic approach to risk and loss are vivdly rendered with wry, elegant style, offering unique insight into the mind of one of the greatest mountaineers of our time. -- From back cover
