Aubrey Le Blond

    Tato průkopnická autorka se prosadila v horolezectví v době, kdy to bylo pro ženy téměř neslýchané. Svou vášní pro hory a odvážným přístupem přepsala hranice možného, prozkoumala nespočet nezdolaných vrcholů a zdokumentovala své výpravy prostřednictvím poutavých textů a fotografií. Její práce inspirovala další generace a zanechala nesmazatelnou stopu v literatuře o horách i v dějinách ženského sportu.
