Description
Ben Moon's life has been inextricably linked to rock climbing since he first set foot on it at just seven years old. For him, climbing is not just a hobby, but the driving force behind his existence. In this official biography, award-winning writer Ed Douglas delves into the world of Ben Moon, dispelling common misconceptions about his approach to the sport. Moon's journey began in Kent and Sussex, where he developed a passion for sandstone outcrops. As a pioneer in the 1980s climbing revolution and a bouldering legend in the 1990s, he made history with the first ascent of Hubble at Raven Tor in 1990. This book brings together interviews with Moon, insights from his family and friends, and extracts from magazines and personal diaries and letters to create a comprehensive portrait of this iconic climber.
