From the publisher: “Royal Robbins had an outsized impact on climbing history. This great new biography by David Smart brings the man behind the famous climbs to life in a way that’s both relatable and inspiring.” – Alex Honnold Royal Robbins: The American Climber chronicles Robbins’ early years growing up as a latchkey kid in Southern California, the push and pull between being an aspiring banker or one of the original Camp 4 dirtbags—and his later decades as a father, husband, kayaker and founder of the outdoor apparel company that bears his name.View all Mountaineers Books Non-Fictional Adventures
