Mountaineering Women celebrates twenty of the most inspiring female figures in the sport from across the globe. Their remarkable stories--from dramatic first ascents to reshaping cultural values and tragic accidents at great heights--are accompanied by rarely seen photographs and specially commissioned drawings and maps. These are women who dare to dream, to instigate change, and to live.
"The stories, of extraordinary women and the paths they forged, pay homage to those who decided to go their own way." -- Nandini Purandare, Introduction
"Mountaineering Women provides long-awaited recognition for the many pioneering women who have made invaluable contributions to the history of climbing." -- Sir Chris Bonington
