'We are delighted with Mr. Freshfield's book. The lovers of mountain scenery will read his descriptions of peaks and passes with unflagging interest, and their hearts will beat quickly as they read of the adventures conducted with so much energy, perseverance, and intelligence.'

'The book is written in a simple and manly style, and gives an agreeable impression of the spirit in which the travellers carried out their design.... We may congratulate Mr. Freshfield on having achieved a much rarer feat than the ascent of mountains, that of recording his performances in a thoroughly satisfactory manner.'
