A riveting account of one of the most notable personalities of the mountain climbing world!
This engaging portrayal of the life of legendary mountaineer Norman Clyde (1885-1972) will amply reward readers hungry for heroes of the past. Clyde made his mark on history with more than 130 first ascents throughout western North America, and many believe he knew the High Sierra better than anyone else, including John Muir.
Part of his mystique comes from participating in high-profile mountain rescues and recoveries, in which he is credited with saving a number of lives. Those who had the good fortune to meet Clyde-often with a ninety-pound pack on his back that included an anvil for boot repair, fishing rods, cooking pots, and books in Greek and Latin-never forgot the experience.Biographer Robert C. Pavlik uses Clyde's own words, along with recollections from his family, friends, fellow climbers, and acquaintances, to capture the experiences of a remarkable man and a bygone time "between the pioneers and the rock climbers."
