Exploring Greenland - Jim Gregson

This striking book, beautifullyillustrated with over 100 colour photographs, shows unequivocally what a precious wilderness the world could lose if the trends in global warming continue unabated. Alongside a rich and thought provoking text, the images captured here are a treasure chest of environmental jewels. Jim Gregson has made many expeditions to Greenland,making many first ascents of unclimbed peaks and ranking amongst Britain’s most experienced Arctic mountaineers. His message in Exploring Greenland is one of conservation,and in these pages he shows us what we should strive to protect. Open these pages not to read tales of conquest but rather to learn of congress with the wild world. Gregson had a lengthy career as a schoolteacher,and throughout his life an even longer (and continuing) a vocation as an alpinist and ski mountaineer. | Hardback 160 pages, over 100 colour photographs
