TRAINING FOR THE UPHILL ATHLETE: a manual for mountain runners and ski mountaineers

In the past two weeks I have read several strong reviews - notably at Faster Skier and Wild Snow websites - and so having already consumed their previous volume, Training For The New Alpinism, I took the plunge.

This is not a book you zip through, and maybe this is not even a book you read sequentially. However, having just dipped my toe into it I can say ... production quality is exemplary as are the photographs, the writing is clear and engaging, finally the content seems spot on.
