The Ascent Of Rum Doodle
Author: W E Bowman
Format: Paperback
An outrageously funny spoof about the ascent of a 40,000-and-a-half-foot peak, discover this laugh-out-loud cult favourite.
Led by the reliably under-insightful Binder, a team of seven British men including Dr Prone (constantly ill); Jungle the route finder (constantly lost), Constant the diplomat (constantly arguing) and 3,000 Yogistani porters, set out to conquer the highest peak in the Himalayas.
VINTAGE VOYAGES: A world of journeys, from the tallest mountains to the depths of the mind
