American Rock: Region, Rock, and Culture in American Climbing
by Don Mellor
Concerned that rock climbing's trendiness is eroding the traditional free spirit of the sport, a veteran climber-guide overviews its history, regional geology and cultural quirks, and pictured and mapped venues from the Adirondacks to Yosemite. Acknowledged periodicals and manuals that influenced Mellor, who works at a school in Lake Placid, NY, are the only references. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com
