The Himalayan range is one of the highest and fascinating ranges on the earth. It contains a rich diversity of people, cultures, religions and mountains. It has inspired travellers, adventurers and pilgrims for centuries.
This book spans a period of sixty years of adventures in the Himalayan range. It gives an insight into the range, changes that have occurred and a history of expeditions and travels in the Himalaya. The book gives an account of changing environment, modes of travels and treks and spirit of adventure--how it has grown, changed and what it is today. It talks of ski training of paramilitary forces in India undertaken by the author, and his associations with some of the legendary mountaineers of his time.
Many of these adventures were undertaken by the author with his wife Eileen. These are some of the `dreams they won`.
