The Climbers
"Twenty years in the making, The Climbers shares a stunning collection of images of some of the icons of mountaineering *Portraits that reveal the core of their remarkable subjects *A visual history of special significance to climbers of all ages *Beautifully packaged in a cloth slip case to enhance its collectability. For nearly 2 decades, professional photographer Jim Herrington has been working on a portrait series of influential rock and mountain climbers. The Climbers documents these rugged individualists who, from roughly the 1930s to 1970s, used primitive gear along with their considerable wits, talent, and fortitude to tackle unscaled peaks around the world. Today, these men and women are renowned for their past accomplishments and, in many cases, are the last of the remaining practitioners from the so-called Golden Age of 20th century climbing."--
