With the anticipated Blood, Sweat and Smears Autobiography from Gary Gibson just being released is there any other ones that I may have missed apart from Ron, Johnny, Jerry and Andy P....?

Just finished The Push by Tommy Caldwell, which I enjoyed.

Have you read The Villian (Don Whillan's bio)? That's pretty good.

Everest - The First Ascent: The untold story of Griffith Pugh, the man who made it possible - Is also very good, something a bit different

I'm finding 'In Extremis: The Life and Death of the War Correspondent Marie Colvin' rather compelling, and moving too, a driven and somewhat troubled (and very brave) individual. In another life she might have made a good climber, personality wise. I'm halfway through, and have had a pause because I'm reluctant to finish it.
