 Potterfield brings savvy insights, practical planning tips, detailed route info and a refreshingly stoked, conversational tone. (Classic Hikes) can be hauled at least as far as the trail head . . . but far more transportable is the inspiration Classic Hikes evokes. "If I could own just one guide book for hiking, Peter Potterfield's refreshingly well-written Classic Hikes would be it—and it would keep me busy for the rest of my life." author of Deep Survival In The Zone chronicles some of the greatest mountaineering survival stories ever told. "In the Zone is a compelling look at the dark side of mountaineering. author of Into Thin Air "Classic Hikes of the World is a wonderfully informative book. It has all of the neccessary information to explore and enjoy some the most beautiful and inspiring terrain on the planet." climber and author of Climbing Free Potterfield's matter-of-fact style gets you right into the climber's head. I loved this story and could not put it down. "Classic Hikes of the World covers the best routes through the most scenic landscapes. Peter has written about the world's greatest hikes, and his first-hand information is as useful as it is fun to read." climber and author of Himalayan Quest Forget the hype about the new "extreme" sports; it's hard to beat Peter Potterfield’s harrowing In the Zone, an account of three deadly climbs. "Himalayan Quest is devoid of all self- promotion or theatricality . . .this voice is nothing less than a brush with the sublime for the reader." magazine of the Great Books Foundation
