MAVERICK MOUNTAINEER (GEORGE INGLE FINCH) (PB)

George Finch was one of the world's greatest alpinists. He was also a renowned scientist, a World War I hero and a Fellow of the Royal Society. Despite this, his is public accomplishments were often shadowed by his complicated private life and his fraught relationship with his son, the actor Peter Finch. Acclaimed biographer Robert Wainwright restores George Finch to his rightful place in history with this remarkable tribute to one of the twentieth century's most eccentric anti-heroes.
