Praise for the man and book from Leo Houlding… ‚Johnny Dawes is the
\nenigmatic front man of an eclectic band of British climbers who in the mid
\n1980’s redefined the standards of difficulty and danger in traditional
\nclimbing. Introducing the world to the impossible grades of E8 & E9, and
\nlaying the foundations of the modern scene, Johnny’s unique style and
\ncharacter have become legend. This long awaited book gives his take on a
\nhighly influential period of climbing history and a look inside the mind of a
\ntormented genius. Written with devoted passion and brutal honesty, Full of
\nMyself lays bare Johnny’s bipolar mix of privilege and pain, wizardry and
\ndysfunction. Master of friction and maestro of momentum on rock and road,
\norchestrator of contemporary climbing techniques such as the dead-point and
\ndyno, the living embodiment of poetry in motion turns his hand to the pen with
\ngreat effect.‘ <\/p>\n
Ed Douglas adds… ‚Johnny Dawes is a legend in British climbing. In 1986, he
\nwas responsible for the most inspired new route in a generation, when he
\nclimbed Indian Face on Clogwyn d’ur Arddu in Snowdonia. Difficult and tenuous,
\na fall from its hardest move would most likely be fatal. But Dawes is much
\nmore than a risk-taker. His rich imagination has left a legacy of outstanding
\nnew routes all over the country, not least on the gritstone edges of
\nDerbyshire where his bold and fluid style reached its fullest expression. He’s
\nan artist really, a choreographer with a warrior spirit.‘ <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
