University of Nebraska Press, 1978. First edition. Hard cover. Very Good/Good. 0x0x0. A tape repair to dustjacket. In Mountain Passages, Jeremy Bernstein has collected eight of his articles —previously published in the New Yorker, the New York Times Magazine, and Mountain Gazette—on climbing and mountain travels. Bernstein, a physicist by profession and an exceptionally talented science writer, has climbed for seventeen summers in the French Alps under the careful supervision of Chamonix guides, and his essays center, understandably, on the Mont Blanc range. He does range afield in a biographical sketch of Yvon Chouinard and in a lengthy account of a drive from France to Pakistan with his long-time climbing guide Claude Jaccoux and Jaccoux s wife Michele, but the focus of his attention is on the history of climbing in the French Alps and his own tours with Jaccoux and others.
