A fact packed, interesting, well written piece of literatureDecember 6, 2000 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
Sparrow has produced an excellent all round manual for the novice and experienced caver. A wide range of topics are covered in sufficient depth to be both informative, and interesting.
Anyone considering taking up caving would be well advised to purchase a copy of this book. Similarly, anyone currently involved in caving is bound to pick up or brush up on some techniques and practices.
Great introduction to caving and useful for intermediatesAugust 11, 2000 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
A very good book for the beginner. I bought this book because I needed more information about knots, tackle and general techniques. Climbing and descending techniques are discussed, along with a great emphasis on safety.
Do not buy this book if you want a guide or anecdotal discussion on the longest caves etc.
This is a straightforward reference for anybody who goes caving or potholing.
