"This is the book which thousands of people have been willing Harry Griffin to write" - Alan Rushbridger, Editor of The Guardian "A very special book...a unique autobiography which is also a living history of modern lakeland climbing" - Chris Bonington "To me, there is very little doubt that Harry Griffin is one of the great outdoor writers of the century, Lakeland's most eloquent evangelist" - Cameron Mc Neish, Editor of The Great Outdoors "He has presented us with a treat: a tale of 70 glorious years of climbing and walking in an area unsurpassed anywhere in the world." - Chris Brasher, CBE, London Marathon Organiser, mountaineer and former Olympic Gold Medallist "Lovely man, lovely book.
