Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The true story of the thrill-seekers, map-makers, soldiers, occultists, artists and porters who paved the way for modern mountaineering. Beautiful, remote and dangerous - for generations we have looked to the mountains in awe. Yet, for most, that is where the fascination ends. For a rare few, however, the allure of the peaks proved irresistible. There are the devout Incan priests who, scaling the Andes icy slopes to pay tribute to each mountain s Great Lord , travelled higher than any European would for centuries. The Gurkha riflemen who joined their commander Charles Granville Bruce in canvassing the Karakoram, admiring the distant summits of Broad Peak and K2 with a gleeful anticipation. The tweed-clad mountaineers who first who made the first serious assaults on Everest, hauling yards upon yards of battered rope, fingers grappling with carabiners, frozen half-shut in the cold. Tracing the world altitude record from the ashy slopes of the sacred volcano Llullaillaco to the icy crags and crevasses of the Karakoram, Daniel Light takes a panoramic journey through the storied history of mountaineering before Everest. Joining a cast of colourful characters - the American cartographer and suffragette Fanny Bullock Workman; the British occultist Aleister Crowley; the legendary, ill-fated George Mallory - The White Ladder offers an ode to mountains capacity to enthral, and the fundamental human drive to climb higher and higher. A riveting journey through the history of mountaineering - before Everest. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
