Paperback. Condition: New. First on the Rope - the acclaimed English translation of the French fiction classic Premier de Cordée by Roger Frison-Roche - is a tale about the harsh lives of mountain guides and their families in the French Alps in the 1920s and 1930s.An ascent of Mont Blanc as porter with his uncle leaves young Pie…rre further convinced he wants to be a mountaineer, breathing the crisp, pure air and soaking up the splendour of the wild landscape. But his family have other ideas. Chamonix is becoming ever more popular with tourists wanting their thrills on the slopes, and they all need somewhere to stay. Running a hotel, however, is not Pierre's idea of fulfilment.Among the glittering peaks and desolate passes, wonderful sunsets and wild winds, tragedy strikes across the Vallée Blanche on the Dru: a brutal storm leaves sadness and destruction in its wake. Can the onset of spring and the hope it brings rebuild Pierre's passion for climbing?First on the Rope epitomises the rhythm of mountain life, the clanking cowbells and the gurgling streams set against the formidable grandeur of the ice and rock. Equip yourself for an immersive and emotive experience in the high Alps.

Add to basketHardbound. Condition: Very Good. Book Club Edition. Description: A novel of high adventure in the French Alps. This was first published in France in 1941 as Premier de Cordee. The publisher's blurb reads: ''Other novels have described the conquest of high mountains by courageous men.

In particular, it gives us the story of a young man who wants desperately to be one of the guides of Chamonix in the Mont Blanc area. However, in the course of a rescue climb, he suffers a fall which causes him to lose his nerve. He sets out to regain it; his struggles form the theme of this tale.'' The author was himself a guide and a member of the famous Compagnie des Guides de Chamonix. This was his first successful novel. BINDNG/CONDITION: red binding; the top edge tint is red; a Very Good book, with a Good dust jacket. 8vo (a8.5 inches tall). 246 pages.
