I never read at home but am an animal when I’m on holiday. The pick of this years selection is:
The Dark Summit, Nick Heil – Very interesting account about climbing Everest and what is left on the mountain.
The Beckoning Silence, Joe Simpson – Talks about why people climb and takes risk and when it is time to stop, I liked it a lot.
We Were Young and Carefree, Laurent Fignon – Interesting take on road racing, clearly he is very opinionated and says what he thinks, worth reading even if you don’t agree with what he says.
Livibng Dangerously, Ranulph Fiennes – He comes across at a bit of an idiot but some of what he acheived is really impressive.
