"This book covers the basic techniques of rockcraft. Starting with ropes and knots, it then covers other climbing gear: nuts, pitons, 'binners, bongs, etc. Belays are discussed in detail, then follows a most complete discussion of the various grips and holds. Excellent drawings by Sheridan Anderson illustrate each of these points and these are supplemented by many photos - all of which have been modeled by some of the outstanding climbers of Yosemite, all close friends of author Robbins. While this book is labeled "Basic Rockcraft," it carries the reader through all of the techniques needed for most high-angle climbs. While the student will be able to successfully climb many of the standard climbs, the cutoff point for "basic" is the threshold for leading of advanced ascents."--

Shortlisted for the 2015 Banff Mountain Film and Book Festival award for Mountain & Wilderness Literature. David Chaundy-Smart took it as a compliment when his high school vice-principal told him he was wasting his youth by climbing. Here, he tells the story of how he and his brother, Reg, spent the last years of the 1970s fighting suburban boredom to become, in the words of renowned climbing historian Chic Scott, "one of the leading figures in Ontario rock climbing throughout the 1980s." With its vivid accounts of short and nasty climbs, dubious mentors, hapless climbing partners, teenage crushes, bad cars, underage drinking and questionable climbing techniques, this is a memoir of coming of age in a simpler era of climbing, told with compassion, humour and insight.

Launching the landmark Performing Landscapes series, Performing Mountains brings together for the first time Mountain Studies and Performance Studies in order to examine an international selection of dramatic responses to mountain landscapes. Moving between different registers of writing, the book offers a critical assessment of how the cultural turn in landscape studies interacts with the practices of environmental theatre and performance. Conceived in three main parts, it begins by unpicking the layers of disciplinary complexity in both fields, before surveying the rich history and practice of rituals, playtexts and site specific works inspired by mountains. The last section moves to a unique analysis of mountains themselves using key concepts from performance: training, scenography, acting and spectatorship. Threaded throughout is a very personal tale of mountain research, offering a handrail or alternative guide through the book.
