Climb through history with Joanna Croston, author of Mountaineering Women: Climbing Through History, and host Christine Reed. Joanna shares how a thread of interest in women’s mountaineering stories and a casual list she’d been compiling over the years prepared her to create this chronology and possibly more in the future.
