Techniques and equipment of ice-climbing from the basics through to the impossible. American flavoured and rather dated (it was published before the appearance of leashless tools for instance) but still worth reading as the author is famous for his outstanding climbs and first ascents established in the American and Canadian Rockies, Alps and Himalayas.
Excellent colour and black and white illustrations.
