100 best climbs in the High Sierra. By John Moynier & Claude Fiddler.
From the preface: "This project began as a simple guide to the finest climbs in the High Sierra. As we researched this book, we became fascinated by the personalities in stories involved with these climbs. Much of the history of Sierra climbing has existed as an oral tradition; stories told among climbers, handed down through generations, but never formally recorded.
We have recorded some of these tales and included them in the text describing these classic Climbs. In the process, this book became a unique guide to Sierra climbing, offering both a sense of history and an introduction to the climbing potential of the range. It is our hope that it serves as an inspiration for those who choose to climb in this exquisite mountain wilderness.”
b&w, 316 pages w/ index. Some climbs have pitch-by-pitch topics but not all.
