Chris Mac,
Great idea ! I was just thinking today now that I'm back from FaceLift how I could do what you just did.
Wanted to tell everyone this book is Most Definetly a Total Winner and anyone interested in Incredible pics and Super well written and hilarious stories should get one asap.
My sister doesn't even climb and she was roaring over a J. Long story. I'll let you discover which one.....
I was Lucky enough to have most every one sign mine at the FaceLift. I appreciate all you Gals and Guys for your autographs. Still need a few more.
One of several favorites was Potter's....."Keeping alive Stonemasters....the next generation." So very Cool.
Peace and Joy, Lynne
EDIT: Superior job Mike Graham, Dean Fidelman and John Long.

Chris,
Thanks a lot for consolidating and posting this. much appreciated!
To Lynne and everyone thanks for the comments.
Kathy our books are signed by both Dean and John and are ready to ship now.
Please take the time to check out our Limited edition set. It's a beautiful package designed to help fulfill John Bachar's wishes for his son Tyrus's education. These copies are moving so we don't expect them to last forever.
For those of you who wish to see the book in person they will be available in all Patagonia retail stores for purchase. They were very gracious to preorder many copies from us and are involved in offering some of our Limited edition's as well.
We have some great projects in the works. John Long has been working with some of the most inspiring free climbers of today to bring you some incredible new stories.
A special thanks from all us at here at Stonemaster Press for your support.
Cheers,
Mike Graham

Uh, Southern Californians, what about the climbers from the Bay Area? And elsewhere to boot.
For example, I always thought Chappie and Ron were from the Bay Area.

hey there patrick.. say, chappy is from san jose...
but say, do you reckon though, they might have said that since he is from southern calif, now, though---but still, "in the day" he was from the bay-areas, as i think san jose, is kind of considerered as such)
not sure where ron is from...
interesting history note, though, as to where he's from, as he did grow up in "old orchardy", san jose... ('til it turned into part of silicon valley)...

Jaybro, I have not seen the book, I was just quoting from the publisher's blurb, or whatever. I am still not impressed. What the f*ck is a stonemaster? California, Washington State, the Northeast, the Gunks, ???? The Alps, Dolomites, Himalayas, Andes???
Nazis that climb the Eigerwand in 'primitive' gear, just as one example? Idolize who you want. I don't.
Go figure.

Patrick, it was a crazy, beautiful, discovery period of the rock, the people and the happening. It unfolded. No one created it. Kinda like the real Woodstock. No need to be thinking to much ..... it was a time and a place that will never be again.
Sure, more could have been included, but that's not the point. I know a few candidates .... but it wasn't about that. It was about a few that met, learned, somehow survived and became legend. I watched. Peace, lynne

Patrick, Sweet bro, no bs, we were there and it was life and one special time.
My husband and I participated in a bit of it, so did our four kiddos. It's a take. We all have different takes on life. But a good bit of eyes here watched it happen.
Your take from seeing it go down may be different. Hey, enjoy the life you have.
I love watchin' On Sight, I would never diss those UK Dudes and what they do .... they are creating their own UK Stonemasters.
Peace, lynnie
