Krátky popis
In Time on Rock Anna Fleming charts two parallel journeys: learning
the craft of traditional rock climbing, and the new developing
appreciation of the natural world it brings her. Through the story
of her progress from terrified beginner to confident lead climber,
she shows us how placing hand and foot on rock becomes a profound
new way into the landscape. Anna takes us from the gritstone rocks
of the Peak District and Yorkshire to the gabbro pinnacles of the
Cuillin, the slate of North Wales and the high plateau of the
Cairngorms.Each landscape, and each type of rock, brings its own
challenges and unique pleasures. She also shows us how climbing
invites us into the history of a place: geologically, of course,
but also culturally. This book is Anna's journey of self-discovery,
but it is also a guide to losing oneself in the greater majesty of
the natural world.With great lyricism she explores how it feels to
climb as a woman, the pleasures of the physical demands of
climbing, fear and challenge, but more than anything, it is about a
joyful connection to the mountains.
