Eiger North Face, Grandes Jorasses and other adventures
Anderl Heckmair
Forward by Reinhold Messner
Heckmair was a close witness to two great events of the 20th century, one political, one sporting - the rise and fall of Hitler and the Nazis and the first ascent of the Eiger North face. This shows, yet again, that sport and politics frequently intertwine. His fine book is thus set against a fascinating historical backdrop.Buy this book from Cordee
