Saqi Books Walking on Thin Air: A Life’s Journey in 99 Steps
Book SynopsisGeoff Nicholson has been walking his whole life. Wherever he is and wherever he goes in the world, he walks and writes about what he sees and feels. Here he reflects on the nature of walking, why we do it, how it benefits us and, in some cases, how it can damage and even destroy us. His recent diagnosis with a rare, incurable form of cancer has made him all too aware of his own mortality. Sooner or later there will be a last step, a last excursion, a final drift, for him just as there will be for all of us. Geoff vows to continue to walk for as long as he can. This moving, vital book describes his own walks and relates them to the walks of street photographers, artists and writers, such as Garry Winogrand, Diane Arbus, Sophie Calle, Jorge Luis Borges and Virginia Woolf, among many others. Walking on Thin Air is a book about mortality and, above all, a celebration of being alive.Trade Review'This pithy, erudite yet resolutely unpretentious book is a celebration of the invigorating, inspiring pleasures of strolling just for the sake of it.' * Buzzmag *

Cicerone Press Walking in the Alps: A comprehensive guide to
Book SynopsisThe second edition of this classic guidebook by Kev Reynolds on walking and trekking in the Alps. This book is a definitive guide to the many thousands of possible routes, with a geographical span that ranges from the Maritime Alps of southern France to the Julians of Slovenia, from Italy's Gran Paradiso to the little-known Türnitzer Alps of eastern Austria, and from the ice-bound giants of the Bernese Oberland to the green rolling Kitzbüheler Alps and the bizarre towers of the Dolomites of South Tirol, showing the amazing diversity of this wonderful mountain chain. There are walks to suit every taste: gentle and undemanding, long and tough, and everything in between. Written by Britain's most respected authority on the Alps, this is a fully updated edition of this important book.Trade Review'The most comprehensive book about alpine walking in the last fifty years.'(Chris Bonington)'This is a book that needed writing, and who better to write it than that doyen of guidebook authors - Kev Reynolds. It is a hefty volume that makes no pretence of being a pocket or even a rucksack guidebook, it's a full scale Alpine bible weighing no less than two and a quarter pounds. It's a book for the long winter evenings, not to dream over but to conspire with, to plot with and to use.'(John Cleare, High)'According to my calculations, if I wanted to do everything listed in this marvellous book I would need to live to just over 400 years and remain fit to the end.'(Ernst Sondheimer, The Alpine Journal)'In his own poetic and inimitable style, [Kev Reynolds] has produced a book that condenses the vast wonderland that is the Alps, from the Mediterranean coast near Nice to the wooded hills of Vienna, into 480 pages of densely, yet eminently readable, information. ... This then, is probably the most important guide to walking abroad that has been published in Britain. It is simply stunning, and should be on the shelves of every walker, scrambler and backpacker who harbours any inclination to travel south to these, one of the finest ranges of mountains in the world.'(Cameron McNeish, TGO)'Illustrated with excellent colour photographs and sketch maps, it's definitely a book for the enthusiast.'(Walking Abroad)'Kev Reynolds' style of writing combines graphic visual descriptions with a real feeling of his love for the mountains - there is nothing dry or understated in his prose. The second feature which I found most attractive, is [the] use of quotations from earlier writers, such as Tuckett, Freshfield, Whymper, Leslie Stephen and many others. He goes further and provides reading lists at the end of each chapter and this, for me, adds perspective and a sense of the inheritance of a wonderful recreation from those who have trodden these incomparable mountains in the past.'(Ewen Moir, Austrian Alpine Club Newsletter)'Perhaps you are thinking of your first walking trip to the Alps; but where? How do you decide? Well you can't do better than start with this comprehensive guide to the whole Alpine chain. It is a soft cover update of the original 1998 hardback, which was recognised immediately as the most complete description of the Alps and the walking it offered.Kev Reynolds is a long established writer in the field with a string of guides to individual areas. It is hard to think of anyone to better his extensive knowledge of the Alpine world and clear writing style. I think even old Alpine buffs will discover a corner they were unaware of.'(Scottish Mountaineer Magazine / August 2006)'A big book in every sense, Reynolds' classic was originally published in 1998 and has been republished in soft cover, with improved mapping and a lot more colour photographs. Its format is simple but highly effective.There is little route description - books that offer that are referred to at the end of each chapter - but there is much loving details of what makes each sub-range and its region unique. The suggested tours are well-thought out, with plenty of scope for personal variations.'(Walking World Ireland / July - August 2007)Table of Contents1: THE MARITIME ALPS Hut to Hut in the Alpes Maritime Summary 2: DAUPHINÉ Queyras Tour du Queyras Massif des Écrins Tour de l'Oisans Vercors Summary 3: THE GRAIAN ALPS The Western Graians Tour du Mont Pourri Tour des Glaciers de la Vanoise Tour of the Vanoise The Eastern Graians Grande Traversata del Gran Paradiso Alta Via della Valle d'Aosta No 2 A Traverse of the Graian Alps Summary 4: THE MONT BLANC RANGE Tour du Mont Blanc Chablais, Faucigny & Dents du Midi Summary 5: THE PENNINE ALPS Tour des Combin The Walker's Haute Route The Eastward Traverse of the Italian Valleys Summary 6: THE BERNESE ALPS The Northern Valleys Multi-day Circuit of the Lütschental and Lauterbrunnental Tour Wildstrubel The Southern Flank Bernese Alps Glacier Tour Oberland Passes Summary 7: THE CENTRAL SWISS ALPS The Eastern Bernese Alps Tour of the Göschenertal The Western Uri Alps Uri-Rotstock Circuit The Eastern Uri Alps & Glarner Alps A Tour of the Hürital & Bisistal Summary 8: THE LEPONTINE ALPS A Tour of Ticino Summary 9: THE BERNINA ALPS The Bregaglia Alps The Bregaglia Circuit Sentiero Roma The Bernina Massif The Engadine Valley Summary 10: ADAMELLO-PRESANELLA-BRENTA Adamello-Presanella An Adamello Circuit The Brenta Dolomites A Tour of the Central Brenta Vie Ferratae Summary 11: THE ORTLER ALPS A Tour of the Ortler Alps Summary 12: THE SILVRETTA ALPS The Verwall Group The Rätikon Alps Rätikon Höhenweg Nord The Silvretta Alps Tour of the Southern Silvretta The Silvretta Traverse Summary 13: THE ÖTZTAL ALPS Across the Central Ötztal Alps Hut to Hut in the Ventertal Gurglertal-Ventertal Hut Tour Two-Day Cross-Border Tour Across the Alpi Venoste Summary 14: THE STUBAI ALPS The Stubai High Route Summary 15: THE ZILLERTAL ALPS Zillertal Hut Tour Summary 16: THE EASTERN AUSTRIAN ALPS The Hohe Tauern The Venediger Höhenweg A Tour of the Glockner & Schober Groups The Niedere Tauern Hut to Hut in the Schladminger Tauern The Gailtal & Carnic Alps Summary 17: THE NORTHERN LIMESTONE ALPS Allgäuer Alps Lechtal Alps A Lechtal High Route Wettersteingebirge & Mieminger Kette Karwendelgebirge Hut to Hut Across the Karwendelgebirge Rofangebirge (Brandenberger Alps) Kaisergebirge Berchtesgadener Alps Tennengebirge Dachsteingebirge Tour of the Gosaukamm A Dachstein Circuit Totes Gebirge Summary 18: THE DOLOMITES Sassolungo & Puez-Odle Groups Catinaccio & Latemar Sella Group Marmolada Group Pale di San Martino Civetta & Pelmo Sorapis & Marmarole Monte Cristallo Dolomiti di Sesto High Level Routes Alta Via 1 Alta Via 2 Alta Via 4 Summary 19: THE JULIAN ALPS The Julian Alps of Slovenia The Julian Alps of Italy Summary
