by Jack Rosenthal (Author)
An entertaining and light-hearted account of a 66-year-old's 51-day walk/climb in the Pyrenees from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea following the famous French walking route, the GR10. Tips on preparation, how to avoid falling into a crevasse and when not to ignore the guidebook are some of the many things Jack should have brushed up on before he set out. Yet he managed it, with the help of occasional odd-ball companions, French restaurateurs and Spanish garage owners (he hadn't realised he'd wandered into Spain). Anyone planning to embark on this demanding trek will find Jack's account invaluable, while everyone can share with him the ups and downs of the adventure, the eccentricities of the French and the joy of accomplishing a lifelong ambition.
