Presumptuous Pinnacle Ladies
Before the First World War, rock climbing was strictly for men. Women who swapped their long skirts for 'unwomanly rags' in order to tackle the crags were objects of derision and shame. This title presents unfolding story of women on rock, from the early 1900s to the late 1930s.
