Title: The Ascent Of Rum Doodle Author: W E Bowman Narrator: Terry Wale Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 14 minutes Release date: December 23, 2010 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Comedy, Satire & Parody Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. First published in 1956, The Ascent of Rum Doodle quickly became established as a mountaineering classic. As an outrageously funny spoof about the ascent of a 40,000-and-a-half-foot peak, many thought it inspired by the 1953 conquest of Everest. But Bowman had drawn on the flavour and tone of earlier adventures, of Bill Tilman and his 1937 account of the Nandi Devi expedition. The book's central and unforgettable character, Binder, is one of the finest creations in comic literature. ©1989 W. E. Bowman (P)2024 Penguin Audio
