Mountaineering Scotland by Ken Crocket

This book is the second volume of a planned three - volume treatment of the history of mountaineering in Scotland, and covers the period from 1914 to 1971. It was a period when there were many changes in the equipment and practice of climbing in summer and winter, and there was a significant rise in the general difficulty of routes being climbed. Many new clubs were formed, and the number of participants increased dramatically.
Ken Crocket is the author of several current climbing guides in addition to a well-received history of Ben Nevis. He has been both the Editor of the Scottish Mountaineering Club Journal (1986-2000) and the club's President (2000-2002). The first volume was published by the Scottish Mountaineering Trust in 2015.
