Description

Published by The Crowood Press, Wiltshire, 2001, 1st UK Edition, D/w, Fine.   Though with the same title as Messner’s 1978 book, this is a totally different proposition with Messner providing a history of Big Wall climbing, but also detailing information on fifty Big Walls  worldwide, from the European Alps and the Caucasus to the biggest walls in South America, Alaska, the Karakoram and the Himalayas.  In a large format, it is lavishly illustrated with stunning photographs.
