Additional Information
The Drakensberg has rich gifts to offer all who come to its soaring peaks and quiet valleys, but all too often the bright anticipation of the morning has ended in disaster and regret. Those who are heedless of its dangers need to know the ancient tale still told by the tribesmen of the Amangwane of how the dragon, in his wrath, claims a human life each year from those who venture into his grim lair. This is a book about the Drakensberg, about its menace and its mysteries, but also about its beauty and its timeless tranquility. It is about the men and women who have claimed these lofty peaks, who dared the wrath of the dragon and who faced high drama with clear eyes. Every mountaineer, backpacker and armchair traveler will relish these stories. They will touch and stimulate everyone conscious of man's insignificance compared to the majesty of the mountains, of his frequent irresponsibility, but also of his qualities of selfless service and compassion which set him apart from the rest of creation.
