- Book: Mountains of the Mind
- Location: China, Europe, Nepal
- Author: Robert Macfarlane
‘Macfarlane writes very well – he loves the mountains as much as anyone – very personal – everyone should read it’ Trail ‘The most exhilarating history of mountaineering – less the tale of how mountains got climbed than the story of why they became objects of such fascination to us – a riveting read’ Jeremy Paxman, Guardian Summer Reads ‘Of all the books published to mark the 50th anniversary of climbing Mount Everest, Robert Macfarlane’s Mountains of the Mind stands out as by far the most intelligent and interesting – he can be as poetic as he is plucky’ Economist
