A Potpourri Journey
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Thomson has given us one story of a mountain; a story of friendships, adventure, and the real world of people and the politics and beliefs that make the world fascinating, but at times troubling. The cultural lessons of the locals (India) and of the participants were very intriguing. Written in a straight forward manner, keeping our interest but not making the read a job with complicated plots and subplots. Recommended to us by someone not interested in mountain adventures, but who never the less enjoyed the book. Includes color and b/w photos.
