In Continental Divide, a Banff Prize-winner tells the history of American mountaineering through four centuries of landmark climbs and first ascents. Maurice Isserman traces the evolving social, cultural and political roles mountains played in shaping the country.
Maurice Isserman is the author of Continental Divide and coauthor of Fallen Giants, a history of Himalayan mountaineering that won the prestigious Banff Prize for best mountaineering history in 2008, as well as that year’s National Outdoor Book Award. He is Publius Virgilius Rogers Professor of American History at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York.
