My Oh My What a Wonderful Book November 21, 2000
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Spanning the globe from Asia to Antarctica to Alaska to New Guinea, this wonderful book is a must for any mountain lover--including those of the armchair variety. The illustrations are heartpounding, while about a few dozen short narratives are wholly satisfying. This book is a wee bit pricey, and, tho' I am a poor boy, I don't feel one bit robbed. This may be the best picture book/narrative mtn. book I own.
Buy the coffee table size hardcover, not the paperback! May 14, 1999
