- Abstract
- Pertains to the story of Albert Smith, a climber and mountaineer. Passionate about the Alpine Mountains, Smith pursued extravagant adventures only to return to Britain and share his experience with large crowds. He ignited a love of mountaineering, curiosity and adventure in those who heard of his extravagant climbs and visits to Mount Blanc. It is through books as such, that readers are better able to conceptualize mountaineering and adventuring on an international scale. The book offers readers a chance to learn about mountaineering in Britain, thus allowing them to relate it to the experience of mountaineers in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Additionally, the book helps express the vastness of mountaineering and the ways in which it influenced daily life, internationally.

- Abstract
- The story of the often unheralded and unrecognized stars of climbing in the Himalaya and the Karakoram: the local inhabitants of the mountainous regions of Pakistan, Tibet, India, and Nepal who have been support staff--porters, cooks, sirdars, and unacknowledged guides--for Western climbers for generations. ALPINE RISING focuses on the experiences and accomplishments of these Sherpas, Baltis, Ladakhis, Hunzas, Astoris, Magars, Bhotias, Rais, and Gurangs. Highlighted climbers range from Raghubir Thapa and Goman Singh who climbed with Albert Mummery in 1895, Ang Tharkay who climbed with Eric Shipton and Maurice Herzog, and Tenzing Norgay who, along with Edmund Hillary, was the first to summit Everest, to today's superstars, Ali Sadpara, Mingma G, Kama Rita, and others -- Provided by publisher.
