Paperback. Condición: New. 'I have given my whole life to the mountains. Born at the foot of the Alps, I have been a ski champion, a professional guide, an amateur of the greatest climbs in the Alps and a member of eight expeditions to the Andes and the Himalaya. If the word has any meaning at all, I am a mountaineer.'So Lionel Terray begins Conquistadors of the Useless - not with arrogance, but with typical commitment. One of the most colourful characters of the mountaineering world, his writing is true to his uncompromising and jubilant love for the mountains.Terray was one of the greatest alpinists of his time, and his autobiography is one of the finest and most important mountaineering books ever written. Climbing with legends Gaston Rébuffat, Maurice Herzog and Louis Lachenal, Terray made first ascents in the Alps, Alaska, the Andes and the Himalaya. He was at the centre of global mountaineering at a time when Europe was emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and he came out a hero. Conquistadors of the Useless tells of his wartime escapades, of life as an Alpine mountain guide, and of his climbs - including the second ascent of the Eiger North Face and his involvement in the first ever ascent of an 8,000-metre peak, Annapurna. His tales capture the energy of French post-war optimism, a time when France needed to reassert herself and when climbing triumphs were more valued than at any other time in history.Terray's death, in the Vercors, robbed mountaineering of one of its most passionate and far-sighted figures. His energy, so obvious in Conquistadors of the Useless, will inspire for generations to come. A mountaineering classic. …

Paperback: 7" x 4¼". Condición: Fair: Heavier signs of wear. 1st Edition. © 1960: A stand-alone novel by Lionel Roberts. 1st edition, 1st printing paperback. Badger Books: Science Fiction Series #SF39. Old tape to top left corner front cover & second-hand book seller's stamps to half title page:- Synopsis: They woke up to the smell of danger. No one could see it. None of them could hear it. But it was there. Lurking. Intangible. Inaudible. Invisible. The space around them was alive with it. They breathed it into their lungs. It crept through the pores of their skins. It was the dreaded presence of X the Unknown. Why had Jon seen that face in his dreams over and over again? Was it real, or did it belong to the uncanny half world of pure mental projection? He glimpsed it again in a patch of moving shadow. He fancied he saw it taking shape on the video screen, only the screen was switched off. He saw it next on the control panel. A trick of reflection from a thousand switches and dials and levers. Maybe. But dials and levers don't talk to a man. Reflections don't send a tough space patrol crew screaming in terror. Then Jon put the impossible facts together and came up with a pattern. The X face was a personality projection. The planet itself was alive:- (original cost 2'). Cover Art: Uncredited (ilustrador). …
