John Gill was a bad ass before he decided to drop the rope and do what he does. Read about the stuff he did in the Tetons if my memory serves me.

Second that Messner nomination, though I'm bit biased by having just read The Naked Mountain. Hard to beat that tale as an epic tragedy and triumph in the high realm.

I agree with Skipt about Four Against Everest by Woodrow Wilson Sayre…24 carat adventure...might be hard to find though. There’s an old dog-eared copy in the Idaho Falls library.
Wizards of Rock: A History of Free Climbing in America by Pat Ament would fit the adventure genre.
EDIT: Used copies of Four Against Everest are available from Chesslers.

Actually, I think someone did mention Downward Bound, Stewart. There's a sleeper in my list, missplaced among guidebooks - one of the best of all time, IMHO - Mountaineering In Scotland, by WH Murray.

Show off (and I hadn't "shot" my library yet).
Here is a dark horse book that blows the mind, a himalayan expedition that yielded many major FAs done on, literally, pocket change!!!
No Tigers In The Hindu Kush, by Philip Trantor

WOW what a list. Is that your inventory for insurance purposes?

Yes, Plaidman, for insurance and legacy purposes. The buzzards are starting to circle, and I want to make the pieces neat and small, so the sky burial is complete and clean. Still not wanting it anytime soon, though, nor expecting it. I feel a number of revolutions/revelations around the sun remaining for me.
By the way, that story that Roberts wrote about the Eiger climb, wasn't about Alex's climb, it was about mine, the route I call Metanoia. Alex never climbed the Eiger, though we did discuss it.

Jello I apologize profusely for my grave error. I edited my post above to correctly give credit to the right person. That was one bad ass climb you did on the Eiger. Awesome style.
