Suppose when you say ‘European’ the book on the Alps don’t have to be a Buddhist meditation?
Rereading Bruce Chatwins ‘In Patagonia’ after I saw Herzog’s ‘Nomad’. Maybe not exactly ’wild’, and it’s not the Alps but the Cordilleras; however Chatwin does have a rucksack, and writes about a walk in an on his mind playing fierce wind in this book.
I'd like some reccomendations for wilderness reading - I enjoyed Gary Snyder The Practice of the Wild last year, and fancied reading something similar. Does anyone have any reccomendations - perhaps something European. Is there a great book on the Alps?
