This year list maybe of interest  to some of you.
Perhaps one book in particular. Backpackers own.

Wow!  What a great collection of interesting books.  I plan to acquire and read more than half of them, maybe more if I can get some at the library.

Thanks for posting this.

I wish their judges were more hands on and less academic, but it is a great list.

Think I will start with the one about the lives of the Sherpas.  I am acquainted with three Sherpas and they are fascinating people.
