5.0 out of 5 stars Galen Rowell's nicest book!
This is an amazing book. Some of the best color I've ever seen in one of Galen Rowell's books and with the new essays and new photographs, I'm really glad I bought it even though I already have the original book that came out in the 70's. This is basically a completely new book! Hats' off to the publisher!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a photography bk per se
This is not a photography book. It's more for mountaineering buffs. But, his photos are included in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars another great book, December 10, 2002

This review is from: High & Wild: Essays and Photographs on Wilderness Adventure (Hardcover)
some of the stories here are in shorter form in his other books, but the full accounts are in this book as well as new ones. most of the pictures in the book aren't in his other books, which makes it worthwhile in itself. unlike his more recent work, this is more like his older work with climbing and skiing stories. sad that these are among Galen's final writings.

This collection of vignettes captures the exciting and impressive mountaineering accomplishments of Galen Rowell, more widely known for his out door photography. Excellent read that shows the diversity of Galen's life.
