Book
Paperback. Condition: Fine. In 1938 Anderl Heckmair made the first ascent of the North Face of the Eiger, a monumental climb that cemented his place in history. In My Life he tells the story of how he turned from a fragile child wrapped 'quite literally, in cotton bindings,' into one of the most important mountaineers in the world. Leaving school in 1920, Heckmair dedicated himself to climbing, becoming a full-time 'mountain vagabond'. Penniless, he lived in Alpine huts and cycled from climb to climb, even riding from Germany to the High Atlas mountains of Morocco. He rapidly developed as a mountaineer, making an ascent of the Walker Spur in awful weather, and a solo ascent of the Matterhorn in walking shoes, a feat that nobody believed. But his crowning achievement, climbed in full media glare, would always be his Eiger ascent. Events did not always run smoothly - arrested after a quarrel with a farmer, he escaped through a window ('never imprison mountain climbers in towers'). When arrested again, his ice axes mistaken for deadly weapons while he slept on a park bench, Heckmair chose to stay put, preferring the cell bunk to his bench. At times, the book ventures into darker territory. As one of the great German climbers of the 1930s, Heckmair inevitably attracted the attention of the Nazi party, he found his Eiger triumph twisted to suit their ends, and he himself seated next to Hitler at a party. At its heart this climbing tale is a celebration of adventure. Told in joyful, engaging and relaxed style, it is as full of life and passion for the mountains as Anderl Heckmair himself.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En los años treinta del siglo XX la conquista de los Alpes -que en 1760 iniciara Horace-Bénedict de Saussure- llegaba a su fin. Las principales cumbres y paredes habían caído ante la perseverancia y sed de aventuras de los alpinistas y escaladores ingleses, franceses, italianos y alemanes, y la gran cordillera iba perdiendo poco a poco su carácter inaccesible. Sin embargo, quedan todavía tres grandes paredes norte sin conquistar, los tres últimos problemas de los Alpes: la del Cervino, la de las Grandes Jorasses y la última, la más temible: la legendaria Eigerwand. En la Europa de los años treinta, un campo minado por la crisis económica y por el cada vez más agresivo movimiento fascista, los jóvenes en paro se dirigen masivamente hacia las montañas. Se desata entonces una feroz competencia por conquistar las tres grandes paredes norte, avivada por los nacionalismos emergentes. Anderl Heckmair, alpinista alemán calificado por Reinhold Messner como el cerebro de la cordada que en 1938 conquistara la peligrosísima pared norte del Eiger, relata en este famoso libro, gran clásico de la literatura de montaña, el desarrollo de aquella "carrera alpinística". Su relato de la conquista de las paredes norte del Cervino por Toni y Franz Schimdt en 1931, de las Grandes Jorasses por Meier y Peters en 1935, y del Eiger por Harrer, Kasparek, Vörg y el mismo Heckmair en 1938, nos cautiva con su tono sincero y directo, a la vez que nos ofrece un documento excepcional de algunas de las últimas grandes gestas alpinas. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
