John Tyndall
John Tyndall (1820–93) was an Irish geologist who became fascinated by mountaineering after a scientific expedition to Switzerland in 1856. This 1860 account, considered a classic from the golden age of Alpine exploration, is divided into two parts: mountaineering adventures in the Alps and scientific discussion of glaciers.
