The twelfth release of the beautiful series "The enchanted mountains" (a CAI - National Geographic co-production) is, as the title reports, completely dedicated to the four thousand meter peaks. Inside the volume, 160 pages richly illustrated by splendid images, about twenty essays and contributions signed by top authors tell us, from various points of view (not only mountaineering but also anthropological, naturalistic, geological, historical and building) the world of high altitude. Among others, a prominent space is entirely reserved for us! In fact, Anna Girardi dedicates a portrait to us in the text entitled Il club delle cime segrete, giving voice to Daniela Formica and Luca Calzone (who took over the presidency of the Club), as well as to the mountain guide and our finisher member Franz Nicolini.
The editorial series "Le montagne incantate" was conceived to promote the CAI Italy way path. The first nine outings are dedicated to it, divided by geographical areas along the entire Alpine and Apennine arc, starting from the Carso and ending in Sicily and Sardinia. The next releases (there will be 15 in all) have expanded to the mountains of the world: from the 8000m peaks to Patagonia, from Africa to Alaska.
You can buy the volume on the Quattromila in April and early May at newsstands at a discounted price of 10 euros (instead of 12.90) by presenting the coupon found in the CAI monthly magazine "Montagne 360".
