PERFETTO; LIEVISSIMI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. Un classico moderno. "Chi sono gli alpinisti? La perfetta conoscenza del mondo della montagna permette all'Autore di condurre un'inchiesta appassionante." Qui sont les alpinistes ? Depuis les grandes figures de la conquête des Alpes: Balmat, Whymper, Mummery, Preuss, Comici, Allain, Cassin, Lachenal, Terray, Rébuffat, Desmaison... jusqu'aux ténors de l'alpinisme moderne : Messner, Boivin, Escoffier, Profit, Gabarrou, Lafaille... ils apparaissent tous et s'animent dans la vaste fresque historique reconstituée par Yves Ballu. Avec les talents conjoints de l'historien et du conteur, et avec la passion de l'homme de montagne, il a remis en scène les protagonistes de l'histoire alpine au sujet desquels, depuis plus de vingt ans, il a mené une enquête scrupuleuse, explorant les documents souvent inédits ou recueillant de nombreux témoignages. Les portraits alternent avec les récits d'épisodes fameux, et toutes ces aventures tiennent le lecteur en haleine tout en lui offrant une approche passionnante de l'évolution de l'alpiniste. Les index des alpinistes et des ascensions marquantes dans les Alpes et les Pyrénées font de cet ouvrage un document de référence.
