Product Description

Synopsis
An extraordinary stately "castle" made of rock and ice, Mont Blanc is one of the most awe-inspiring and impressive natural monuments in the world, an ideal destination for mountaineers in search of adventure. This volume, with the aid of enchanting pictures and captivating texts, illustrates the successive conquests of Mont Blanc, from the first mission in 1789 to the later adventures of people such as Edward Whymper, Armand Charlet, Riccardo Cassin, Walter Bonatti and Christophe Profit. It features over 380 breathtaking colour photographs and chronicles successive conquests of this imposing and challenging mountain.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great mountain photographs, 18 Sep 2001
By A Customer
Very much a book for the climber and mountaineer - of either the armchair or real variety. This is a large book with page after page of glorious photography, several pages actually fold out. The text is interesting but not very original. Excellent value considering the large size and good quality printing.
