Robin Smith was one of the most daring climbers ever to have tackled a mountain. This definitive biography draws on contributions from people who knew this charismatic and complex young man, as well as diary extracts from Smith himself. A friend and inspiration to many climbers worldwide, including fellow Scot Dougal Haston, High Endeavours" is a fitting and well-overdue tribute to one of Britain's most revered mountaineers and one of the finest books ever written on the allure of the mountainside."
