A Canvas of Rock transports the reader through two of the most influential periods in modern British rock-climbing as seen through the eyes one of the UK`s well-respected rock climbers
- Mark Radtke. This collection of personal experiences & friendships with climbers from the 1970s to the present day, provides a rare insight & first-hand account on some of the crucial & at times contentious episodes that paved the way to today`s rock-climbing scene. We are also treated to insights of the man himself
- his passion & his drive that have allowed him to challenge his limits & to pioneer many new Extreme routes. ` Rad shows us his own frailties
- his vertigo, his occasional bursts of egocentricity
- & this makes him a convincing guide. It is a great read, full of humour & drama, but at the same time it is a wise & important contribution to the ongoing debate of climbing ethics. Where slipping into the comfort zone does not & must not equal progress.` From Foreword by Andy Cave
