Polarworld - creating beautiful booksMountain Heroes: Portraits of Adventure
Reviews for Mountain Heroes:‘In its approach and impressive execution, there’s never been a book like this. Highly recommended!' - Climbing Magazine Chosen as one of the year's 'most stylish books' in the 'ultimate' Christmas gift guide - Mail on Sunday 'Alluring, mysterious, wonderous, fearsome – mountains have a sense of impregnable wilderness that challenges our imaginations to discover, to create, to dare, to dream. A new book, Mountain Heroes: Portraits of Adventure, examines our fascination with the highest places in the world, telling the stories of the individuals who’ve made them their passion’ - Geographical 'Lovely landscapes and astonishing adventures. Inspirational…Mountain Heroes strikes the same note but with greater flair. A collection of portraits and biogs, it pays tribute to the climbing greats but focuses on those who are still at the pinnacle of their career. The imposingly-close camera angles allow you to look right into their eyes – perhaps to see if you can glimpse a kindred spirit’ - Wanderlust 'Stunning…fascinating…absolutely amazing’ - Outdoors Magic ‘You’ll need a pretty big stocking to accommodate it, but surely this is the ultimate stocking filler for the outdoor enthusiast? Mountain Heroes: Portraits of Adventure by Huw Lewis-Jones presents an epic account of endurance, enterprise, heroism and fellowship in the wildest of places through the weathered faces of mountaineers. A unique and beautifully designed book, Mountain Heroes also includes special contributions from admired members of the mountaineering community, including Doug Scott, Sir Chris Bonington and Stephen Venables, setting the scene with a series of commentaries and essays on the nature of the mountain experience from the very first major ascents to present-day feats of mountain heroism' - Outdoor Enthusiast |
