Mountaineering Women is a richly illustrated collection of the astonishing and often surprising stories that celebrate the achievements of twenty women climbers, spanning both history and the globe. Even though women have a pronounced and rich history in the sport, they are conspicuously absent from mountaineering literature. As adventure pursuits like climbing and mountaineering continue to gain popularity, women's visibility in those sports has also come under the spotlight. Croston’s book presentation is followed by a Q&A with climbers from the book including; Hazel Findlay, Lynn Hill, Lydia Bradey, Sarah Hueniken, Brette Harrington and Sharon Wood.
Author presentation is followed by a book signing.
