I'm not a climber myself, although I do enjoy armchair mountaineering. Whilst I liked One Man's Mountains, I suspect climbers will get more out of it than I did.
Patey was a Climber, Doctor, Musician, Poet, and Comedian. His view on life was one to savour, here is an all too brief sampling of his thoughts.
