I think I'm going to have to re-read that book. I enjoyed it and thought it was well written but not exceptional. It certainly didn't leave me with the impression that it is the paragon of quality that everyone else seems to think it is.
I'd tend to agree with you about both Ron and Jerry's books - they are informative and a great insight into climbing at the time and most of all, they are accessible. When I pick my climbing literature, I'm not looking for Shakespeare or Hardy (was about to say Dickens, but I don't particularly like Dickens' verbosity!).
