A celebration, in thrilling text and stunning photographs, of twenty of the most daring women mountaineers from around the globe.
Mountaineering WomenFrom the Amazigh (Berbers) of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco to the Inca Empire, high in the Andes, women have long traversed the worlds most forbidding peaks. When, many centuries later, mountaineering took off as a sporting activity in the West, it was plucky Victorian women who defied convention to tackle the fabled summits of the European Alps. Yet despite the fact that women have a pronounced and rich history in the sport, they are conspicuously underrepresented in mountaineering literature.Mountaineering WomenHimalayan Journal
