One of the key players of post-war climbing in France, Lionel Terray made first ascents in the Andes and the Himalaya, and notable repeats of Alpine north faces. He was a controversial and opinionated figure, and Conquistadors of the Useless, his autobiography, gives full leash to his personality and dedicated love of the mountains.

  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or price price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
