Mountaineering in Scotland is one of the greatest classics in climbing literature. It records the early days of Scottish winter and summer pioneering, providing a timeless antidote to modern-day tales of sterile athleticism. W.H. Murray describes remarkable climbing adventures on some of the most iconic routes in Britain.
If mountaineering books are to be measured by their inspirational value, then Undiscovered Scotland is a must-read for all climbers and walkers. W.H. Murray explores the most challenging and remote routes of Scottish mountaineering, venturing into the heart of these wild hills. The white magnetism of winter moonlight and the still peace of evenings spent in wilderness are depictions of mountains that have been traversed by few, but which hold treasures to delight the many.Undiscovered Scotland is a manifesto for bold adventures into the unknown, yet is suffused with the comradeship of mountain days. These are the stories of adventures that will inspire, encourage and salve the mind.
