The Edge

Description

Published by BBC Books, London, 1994, 1st UK Edition, D/w, Fine.   The Edge, which accompanies the BBC-TV series of the same name, records the diversity of Scottish mountaineering and reveals the rich character of many of those pioneers who, over more than a hundred years, have put Scotland firmly on the map of world mountaineering.  From the early Victorian pioneers, such as Norman Collie and Harold Raeburn, to more recent prominent climbers like Dave Cuthbertson, Rab Anderson and Graeme Ettle, The Edge is a tribute to some of the late nineteenth and the twentieth century’s greatest mountaineers.   Fully illustrated with many previously unpublished photographs.
