Description

Alpine expert Kev Reynolds has spent fifty years exploring mountain landscapes and thirty writing about his experiences.

Here he shares some of the high points of a full life as a wanderer and writer.

Kev is the leading international authority on many mountain ranges, including the Pyrenees, many regions of the Alps and the Nepal Himalaya.

As the author of numerous guides he has inspired many thousands of trekkers to follow in his footsteps.

As a lecturer he regularly evokes the mood and majesty of the mountains to spellbound audiences.

In this book Kev tells how he set off, aged 21, to explore the Atlas Mountains of Morocco - and never looked back.

He abandoned his desk-bound local government job to pursue a life in the mountains, living and working in Britain, Austria and Switzerland before finding his true metier as a writer.

These 75 stories capture the joy he has take in exploring the Atlas Mountains, Pyrenees, Alps, Himalaya and 'Other Wild Places' again and again, meeting the local people and the mountain guides, experiencing the local food, faiths and lifestyle and watching the sun rise and set against some of the world's highest peaks from summit bivvies.
