Bullock, one of the UK’s most outstanding climbers, presents his debut book. He escaped his life as a prison guard by discovering the mountains of Scotland and Wales. He has since traveled on over 20 expeditions from Pakistan to Peru in search of new routes and a new way of seeing the world. Bullock describes a number of climbs including Teng Kangpoche (Nepal), Meru Shark’s Fin (India), Savoia Kangri (Karakoram), Quitaraju Central Buttress (Peru), and Jirishanca SE Face (Peru).
