Rock climbing is a fast-growing sport and more and more people each year are being drawn towards this most exacting and exciting pursuit. This book is a celebration of the diversity and challenge of rock climbing in Britain. David Jones is both a highly-experienced climber and an outstanding photographer; he has compiled some dramatic and highly original shots in this book. Over 100 full-page, colour, action shots of climbs all over Britain, from Lands End to the North of Scotland, illustrate ascents from easy to extreme. Numerous classics are included from the traditional Napes Needle to the breathtaking The Bells, The Bells, as well as many relatively unknown climbs; a detailed description of each is given. All the various forms of rock climbing are covered including: leading, soloing, bouldering and climbing walls. There are also chapters dealing with the history of the sport, the gear and suggested training programmes. The necessity of close attention to fitness, safety and to mastering techniques is strongly emphasised. With its spectacular and quite exceptional illustrations, Rock Climbing in Britain will appeal both to the most proficient climbers and to those just starting out. .
