{"product_id":"close-ups-of-the-high-norman-clyde-9780964753037","title":"Close Ups of the High Sierra","description":"\"Close Ups of the High Sierra\" is a journey through the exquisite and remote backcountry of the Sierra Nevada as told by one of the greatest California mountaineers of all time. Norman Clyde's rate of first ascents far surpassed those of John Muir, Clarence King and William Brewer, combined. Clyde was so familiar with the Sierra, that he was often called upon to find downed planes and lost climbers, which he did with a tremendous rate of success. Published here for the first time is a selection of Clyde's best writings, which for more than half a century, have been filed away in the forgotten solitude and darkness of private collections. Also included are photographs taken on Clyde's famed Sierra Club High Trips, which were attended by such notable Sierrans as Ansel Adams, Cedric Wright, Francis Farquhar, Glen Dawson, and Jules Eichorn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Norman Clyde\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0964753030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780964753037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Spotted Dog Press, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/10\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 6.05w x 0.42d","brand":"Norman Clyde","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48807618478335,"sku":"9780964753037","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/close-ups-of-the-high-norman-clyde-9780964753037","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
