## Description

A new look at the history of mountaineering in North America combined with route descriptions for more than 40 historic climbing routes.  *The first book in more than 25 years to update North American climbing history *The latest installment in the American Alpine Club's historical guidebook series, which includes critically acclaimed titles Stone Crusade and Wild Snow *Information about climbing routes that played significant roles in development of mountaineering in the United States, Canada, and Mexico *Forewords by world-renowned alpinists Barry Blanchard and Peter Croft Ways to the Sky charts the evolution of alpine climbing in the United States, Canada and Mexico from unrecorded ascents by native people centuries ago to the cutting-edge climbs of today. Rejecting a purely chronological timeline, this meticulously researched book shows the evolution of climbing style from early ascents by the easiest routes, through heavily supported expeditionary climbs, to the light, fast alpine-style climbs of major peaks occurring now.  As with its predecessors in the historical guidebook series, Ways to the Sky combines historical narrative with copious photographs--some previously unpublished--and route information for more than 40 historically significant routes to create a unique collector's piece. Ways to the Sky brings the rich history of North American mountain ascents to life, highlights key personalities and climbs, then points readers to the mountains where they can experience firsthand many of these historically significant routes.
