A biography of “Hot” Henry Barber, one of the East Coast’s most famous climbers.
Barber is a local legend in the East, although many places have stories of Barber visiting and blowing away the local climbers - particularly when he visited Australia, he significantly advanced their open-ended grading system.
Known for his brash attitude, free solo climbs, and golfer’s cap, Barber is an under-appreciated character in climbing history.
Hardcover first edition, 291 pages, with b&w photographs throughout. Signed: “Cheers, Henry C Barber” on the title page.
