In the 1930s, as official government expeditions set their sights on conquering Everest, a little-known World War I veteran conceived his own crazy, beautiful plan. He would fly a Gipsy Moth aeroplane from England to Everest, crash land on its lower slopes, then become the first person to reach its summit
- by himself. Maurice Wilson didn't know how to climb. He barely knew how to fly. But he had pluck, daring & a vision
- he wanted to be the first man to stand on top of the world. Wilson is a man written out of the history books
- dismissed as an eccentric & a charlatan by many, but held in the highest regard by many mountaineers. The Moth & the Mountain restores him to his rightful place in the annals of Everest & in doing so attempts to answer that perennial question
- why do we climb mountains? About the author Ed Caesar is forty years old. He lives in Manchester, & writes for the New Yorker. He has won eleven major journalism awards
- including a British Press Award, PPA Writer of the Year & the 2014 Foreign Press Award for Journalist of the Year. His subjects have included conflict in central Africa, the world's longest tennis match, stolen art, money-laundering, & the trade in diamonds. His first book, Two Hours, won a Cross Sports Book Award in 2016.

The Munros Pocket Log is a very small & classy note book which has been carefully crafted for Munro-Baggers. The texture of the cover & the gold trimmings give it a stylish retro feel. The contents are in black & white, with the hills arranged logically & geographically. Its size is its charm but also its advantage. Full size log books expect a lot more to be written than is helpful to most people, take up space & can't be easily carried. Wall charts don't allow for notes & aren't mobile either. Smartphone apps are efficient but, well, it's not the same is it?... So this is it! All you need to carry with you above 3000 feet.
Includes:: A page for each Munro, grouped with neighbours if appropriate Height information, background image & quirky fact for each A full listing with tick boxes for quick reference of what you've done A progress chart on which you can record your running total
