No Limits But the Sky: The Best Mountaineering Stories From Appalachia Journal
- National Book Network AMC No Limits But the Sky by Christine Woodside - 9781628420210
This anthology collects the most riveting, real-life adventure stories from Americaâ€™s oldest mountaineering and conservation journal, Appalachia. Each of these essays, published from 1877 to the present, chronicles a tale of explorers who push the limitsâ€•of endurance, weather, altitude, or personal achievement. Some of these explorers make history, such as the first American climber to ascend Kilimanjaro in 1932; others, such as the leader of an 1895 team attempting a first ascent of Canadaâ€™s Mount Lefroy, never return. Freak accidents, legendary perseverance, and singularly colorful personalities and climbing luminaries such as Bradford Washburn, Elizabeth Knowlton, and Fritz Wiessner all figure into this fascinating, illustrated collection.
