Produktbeschreibung

Winner of the Outdoor Writers GUld Award for Excellence

In this new book on pre-mountaineering ascents and near ascents in the Highlands, we have at last a work which does justice to those who lived and worked, travelled and fought in the Highlands before Walter Scott. PROF. BRUCE LENMAN

Marvelous account of mountaineering's prehistory... as coulourful as it is thought provoking - THE SCOTSMAN

This work tells the story of explorations and ascents in the Scottish Highlands in the days before mountaineering became a popular sport - when Jacobites, bandits, poachers and illicit distillers traditionally used the mountains as sanctuary.
