I Chose to Climb, first published in 1966, was Chris Bonington's first book. He was recognised then, as now, as one of the outstanding members of a brilliant generation of mountaineers. Here he describes his climbing beginnings as a teenager as well as successful ascents all over the world: the first ascent of the Central Pillar of Freney, the first British ascent of the North Face of the Eiger in 1962, Annapurna II in 1960 and in an unhappy expedition in 1961, Nuptse, the third peak of Everest.

Story0
Chris Bonington è uno dei più grandi alpinisti al mondo. A più di ottant’anni, non smette ancora di affrontare le cime e se stesso: la montagna è per lui sfida, ricerca del limite, senso della vita. In questa autobiografia racconta la sua storia straordinaria: la famiglia, da cui eredita il temperamento avventuroso; la madre, una donna forte, coraggiosa, anticonformista, che lo alleva con tenerezza e determinazione durante gli anni della guerra; l’attrazione per le vette, un magnete irresistibile che lo allontana prima dalla carriera militare e poi da quella nel marketing, reclamandolo a sé come unico scopo dell’esistenza.

Story1
This gripping account of courage, achievement, and heartbreaking loss tells the story of Bonington's Boys, a band of climbers who reinvented mountaineering during the three decades after Everest's first ascent. The boyish, fanatically driven Chris Bonington's inner circle included a dozen of the most renowned climbers, who took increasingly terrible risks on now legendary expeditions to the world's most fearsome peaks, and paid an enormous price. Most of them died in the mountains, leaving behind the hardest question of all: Was it worth it?

In Crisis on Mount Hood, author and emergency room doctor Christopher Van Tilburg looks at the history of America's oldest all-volunteer mountain rescue team, the Hood River Crag Rats, and his own three-decade commitment to search and rescue. Centered on Oregon's iconic 11,249-foot-high Mount Hood, considered by many to be the world's most-climbed glaciated peak, this dramatic narrative leads listeners through a century of life-and-death challenges.
