He is an astute observer of nature and the human spirit, and this account of his travels is infused with with his own zest for discovery and the joy of camaraderie. Undaunted by hardship or by injury, Shipton and his team attempt to cross one of the great ice caps in Patagonia. It’s impossible not to marvel at his determination, resilience and appetite for travel and adventure, be it climbing snow-clad mountains, or walking in forested foothills. Shipton takes a reader with him on his travels, and the often-inhospitable places he visits are a stark contrast to the warmth of the people he encounters. Land of Tempest is essential reading for anyone who loves nature, mountains, climbing, adventure or simply the joy of discovering unknown places.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 10mmItem Weight: 275gAuthor: Eric ShiptonGenre: Travel & TransportTopic: Sports & Hobbies, Biography, Science Nature & MathBook Series: Eric Shipton: The Mountain Travel BooksRelease Year: 2019 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
