No tigers in the Hindu Kush

Published posthumously, this book was edited from the diary of Philip Tranter by his parents, as he was sadly killed in a motor accident shortly after his return from the expedition referred to in the book. He was on his way home from a shorter climbing expedition in Turkey, planning to write the book of the Scottish Hindu Kush Expedition of 1965.
It is an interesting book, charting the success of the four young men exploring, mapping and climbing a previously uncharted area of the Hindu Kush in Afghanistan. There is repetition, as might be expected of an expedition climbing eleven peaks over a five week period, with hand carried equipment and food - the menu for example wasn't overly varied - but it is a well told and enthusiastic story, and is very readable.
