Informative
Not his best work, but an informative book all the same. I think I have read every book written by Greg Child and stronly recommend all of his books. This one was more of a technical manual and perhaps I had become to expect his writing style that you will find in all of his other works. Great author.

By Ross (Connecticut) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Climbing: The Complete Reference (Hardcover)
Greg Child is one of the very best writers in mountaineering and this excellent reference book is up to his high standards and often displays Child's sly sense of humor. Child has choses his contributers well. It is very informative and I believe that both experienced climbers and armchair mountaineers will benefit from it as he nicely defines many of the terms that are bandied about in other mountaineering adventures and expedition books. Child also discusses the issues and controvercies in mountaineering and includes excellent summeries of many of the main events in mountaineering history.
