Conquistadors of the Useless

Historic first ascents in the Alps, Alaska,
Andes and Patagonia

Lionel Terray

Forward by David Roberts

Terray's highly praised autobiography contains the Eigerwand 2nd ascent, first ascents of Annapurna, Makalu, Jannu and FitzRoy plus climbs in the Andes and Alaska. He too saw war action in the untidy 1944-45 mountain endgame on the frontier between France and Italy, described in an enthralling chapter in this book.
