Canadian peaks have not received the glamorous attention of the European and Asian ranges, yet Canada's Mount Logan is only 450 feet lower than our own Mount McKinley and incredibly more difficult to approach. The peaks Sherman describes also include Mounts Waddington, Slesse, Robson, Howson and Fairweather. In one of his most interesting tales, Sherman participates in locating the high wreckage of an airliner which crashed with 54 aboard... This is not only an excellent addition to recent climbing books, but also fills a great gap in the subject for armchair altitude addicts.
