Climbing Scottish mountains has never been more popular and interest in those over 3000ft - the Munros - has been given new vigour following recent revisions to the list of Munros and re-surveys of many of the mountain heights.The details of all these changes are included in this edition of 'The Munros'along with revised route descriptions and updated maps.The summits are named after Sir Hugh Munro of Lindertis inAngus whoin 1891first published his Tables of Heights over 3000ft in the Scottish Mountaineering Club Journal.Since thenwell over 15000 individuals have climbed all theMunros and many thousands more are systematically climbing them while at the same time enjoying the beauty and the challenge of Scotland's big hills.This book will inspire them. 'The Munros: Scotland's Highest Mountains' offers a choiceof routes up Scotland's 284 Munrosoften combining several to make a satisfying day out.This also serves the purpose of spreading the load on the hill by suggesting more adventurous routes away from the popular 'honeypot' footpaths.Stunning colour photographs portray the grandeur and beauty of the hills and these are complemented by graphic route maps.One of the dangers of the Munro bagging phenomenon is thatmany walkers are climbing hills without actually getting toknow them - for many it has become just a list-ticking game.This book is intended to introduce Munro-climbers to different aspects of the hills' character in a more holistic waynot only as a guidebook but as an essential reference book to be used in planning the daysweekends or weeks spent in one of Europe's most varied and remarkable mountain landscapes. Climberwriterbroadcaster and Munroist No. 913Cameron McNeish completed his first round of Munros in 1991100 years after Sir Hugh Munro compiled and published his list.Cameron completed his second round in 1996.Scotland's foremost hillwalking authorCameron McNeish draws on his own extensive and intimate knowledge of the mountains to offer a choice of routes to each summit.

The Control Of Nature
New York New York: Farrar Straus & Giroux. Fine in Very Good Dust Jacket. 1989. First Edition: Third Printing. Hard Cover. 0374128901 . 006501: Dustjacket now protected by a new Brodart Mylar Cover. Scarce Out Of Print Book. Dustjacket is lightly worn along edges. "Some of the more expensive real estate in Los Angeles is up against mountains that are rising and disintegrating as rapidly as any in the world. After a complex coincidence of natural events boulders will flow out of these mountains like fish eggs mixed with mud sand and smaller rocks in a cascading mass known as debris flow. Plucking up trees and cars bursting through doors and windows filling up houses to their eaves debris flows threaten the lives of people living in and near Los Angeles' famous canyons. At extraordinary expense the city has built a hundred and fifty stadium-like basins in a daring effort to catch the debris. Taking us deep into these contested territories McPhee details the strategies and tactics through which people attempt to control nature. Most striking in his vivid depiction of the main contestants: nature in complex and awesome guises and those who would attempt to wrest control from her--stubborn often ingenious and always arresting characters. ": 5.75 x 8.5 in.: 272 pages . Farrar Straus & Giroux hardcover

Even the Browns - The Zany True Story of Baseball In the Early Forties
Contemporary Books. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1978. First Edition. Hardcover. 0809280167 . This specific hardback book is in fine condition with very minimal wear and a hard board cover that has sharp edges and corners and a tight binding. The pages are clean crisp unmarked and uncreased. The dust jacket is in very good condition with some minor cover or edge wear. We package all books in custom cardboard book boxes for shipment and ship daily with tracking numbers.; "Journalist William Mead wrote this interesting look at the St. Louis Browns and baseball during World War II. Mead examines some history of this underdog franchise which won its only American League pennant in 1944 as most big-leaguers were in military uniform. The 1944 Browns squeezed out a pennant on the last day with a typical wartime roster of aged players and some 4-F's whose minor infirmities kept them out of the service but not off the field. We learn about top Brownie players like Denny Galehouse Don Gutteridge and Mike Kreevich manager Luke Sewell and the team's ownership. The author quotes several players adding spice to the narrative. We also learn about baseball during the first half of the 1940's as war needs affected the game. I'd have liked more attention on the 1944 pennant race but this is a solid look at the era plus the largely-forgotten Browns 1902-1953 forerunners of today's Baltimore Orioles."; 9 X 6.30 X 1.30 inches; 255 pages .

Meadow Run Press
Archive of Meadow Run Press Sporting Book Publisher 1989-2010 including the publisher's own copies of the books original artwork correspondence typescripts proofs ephemera editorial foul matter etc.
Stone Harbor; Far Hills New Jersey 2010. Approx 60 linear feet 31 file boxes and 1 box of oversize material. Fine. Approx 60 linear feet 31 file boxes and 1 box of oversize material. The Archive of Meadow Run Press sporting book publisher 1989-2010. For two decades William D. Trego's Meadow Run Press set the standards for American sporting book publishing and issued a series of finely produced original works by new and established authors as well as sporting club histories privately printed angling volumes and a select group of reprints of neglected classics. The books among them Sea Level and Marquesa by Jeffrey Cardenas The Henryville Fly Fishers by Ernest Schwiebert Live Water by Tom McGuane and the cult classic The Starlight Creek Angling Society by Harry Middleton are notable for their content and for a consistent attention to design illustration and the form of the finished book. Many of the titles were also issued in limited deluxe editions with special bindings and additional material by the artists and authors; several were printed letterpress by Bradley Hutchinson of Austin Texas. The books were uniformly well received by reviewers and readers alike and several were reprinted on multiple occasions. The publisher Mr. William D. Trego variously of Stone Harbor and Far Hills New Jersey was educated at the Philadelphia College of Art now the University of the Arts Temple University and Villanova University. He established the press as his interests in collecting evolved from American literature to American sporting books and to the outdoors. From modest beginnings in 1989 with a reprint of a classic American angling work he undertook to publish original works and commissioned suitable illustration art from living American artists including Peter Corbin John Swan John Rice and others. The Meadow Run Press books reflected the publisher's style and something of his character as well: Tom McGuane now a legendary figure in American outdoor writing wrote to Mr. Trego "The books are beautiful and you've done such a fantastic job on this project - in every way! I've been writing for a living for almost three decades and this is by far my most pleasant publishing experience" autograph letter signed dated 27 December 1996 in the archive. The Archive includes editorial business and production correspondence relating to the books and to their sale to mail-order and trade customers with significant exchanges with authors Tom McGuane Ernest Schwiebert Tosh Brown David Swanson John Cole and others as well as with the artists commissioned by the press. Mr. Trego views The Starlight Creek Angling Society as one of the most significant accomplishments of the press and this is documented in the original typescript of the book as well as in the extensively edited drafts and abundant correspondence with the author who died untimely soon after the book was published. The other important discovery of the press was Jeffrey Cardenas whose first book Marquesa has become a modern salt water angling classic. M.L. Biscotti's A Bibliography of American Sporting Books 1926-1985 1997 is a significant addition to the tradition of sporting reference works. Mr. Trego is himself a well-regarded writer and one large archive box relating to his earlier articles is present. The archive also includes a variety of submission manuscripts for works that the press declined to publish. As a bookman Mr. Trego is known for his his meticulous insistence on condition; all of the publisher's copies of books are in superb condition most with warm inscriptions from the authors and often with original drawings by the artists. Much of the smaller format artwork has been put into boxes to accompany notable typescripts such as the raw unedited typescript of Schwiebert's Henryville Fly Fishers or the substantial archive of Harry Middleton material. Generally the condition of materials in the archive files is fine; some of the correspondence is on thermal fax paper and thus may present conservation issues in the longer term. Mr. Trego is at work on a book on Harry Middleton and Starlight Creek and retains all publishing rights in the Middleton material suitable acknowledgment of the owner of the archive would be made when the book is published. A full description of the contents is available. A substantial archive and a rich glimpse into American sporting publishing at the close of the twentieth century.
