5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding!, August 8, 1998
This review is from: One Man's Mountains: Essays and Verses (Paperback)
Tom Patey not only climbed some wicked routes, but was an incredibly gifted and humorous writer, often in a self effacing manner. This is one of the best climbing books I have ever read. Three words: Buy this book!

Great hilarious book on true mountaineering., August 29, 2005
This review is from: One Man's Mountains: Essays and Verses (Paperback)
Tom is both a gifted climber and writer. If you like arm chair mountaineering books, and have read "the White spider" or any of the other North face of the Eiger climbing books you'll really love his take on that climb. Plus his climbers dictionary is just great. I second this opinion, buy this book!
