Description

Whether a seasoned adventurer or a want-away office worker, How to Climb Mont Blanc in a Skirt is the essential purchase for Christmas in 2011. From using camel fat to improve your love-life to climbing Everest without oxygen, Mick Conefrey offers a vivid insight into the often-overlooked world of female explorers. Discover who dressed up as a Tibetan peasant to explore Asia and why you shouldn't let a gorilla near your bedroom. Pairing inspiring stories of famous female explorers with hilarious tips on being an adventurer - such as what to do when attacked by a crocodile - this book is fascinating and entertaining in equal measure.
