Once we thought monsters lived there. In the Enlightenment we scaled
them to commune with the sublime. Soon, we were racing to conquer their
summits in the name of national pride.
In this ground-breaking,
classic work, Robert Macfarlane takes us up into the mountains: to
experience their shattering beauty, the fear and risk of adventure, and
to explore the strange impulses that have for centuries lead us to the
world's highest places.
