The White Spider
Häftad bok. Paladin . 1989.
Mycket gott skick.
Heinrich Harrer was in the party which first ascended the notorious North Wall of the Eiger in 1938. The White Spider is his classic account of the attempts to make that terrible climb.
'An outstanding book in the mountaineering library. It tells the story of the Eigerwand, the appallingly steep and difficult north face of the Eiger... The author is well qualified for his task'
THE GUARDIAN
'The White Spider provides almost the classic statement of the weird and frequently misunderstood psychology of the modern rock climber. Despite the grimness of much of what he is describing, Herr Harrer communicates the irresistible joy of climbing as an antidote to the idea that climbers are masochistically trying to prove something to themselves' SUNDAY TIMES
'The best and most exciting mountaineering book... Few who read it will fail to be thrilled by this heroic story
