5.0 out of 5 stars Another inexpensive jewel by John Long and Duane Raleigh, April 20, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Climb: Clip and Go! (How To Climb Series) (Paperback)
The drawings alone are worth the $6 cost. Considering that this and Robyn Erbesfield's "Sport Climbing with Robyn Erbesfield" (possibly overpriced at $14.95, 92 pages, paperback) are the main books on this new facet of climbing, you can't go wrong with John and Duane's. They advise that this book is NOT for beginners, as clip-and-go routes under 5.10b are the exception and it does NOT teach you how to clasp holds and use your feet. But they do cover all the basics of sport climbing in sufficient detail to help you get into this arena

4.0 out of 5 stars good, November 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Climb: Clip and Go! (How To Climb Series) (Paperback)
This book takes the scariness once associated with the clip and go routes. This book has greatly improved my climbing. Thanks

3.0 out of 5 stars Description Correction: This is NOT for beginners, November 16, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Climb: Clip and Go! (How To Climb Series) (Paperback)
Though the description suggests this book is for beginners and advanced climbers, the preface of the book clearly states that it is not a book for beginners. Might be useful to someone who knows what they are doing: that is not me. This is the second book I've purchased in the "how to climb" series that failed to teach me how to climb.
