Abstract
The latest in a series of climbing memoirs by the editor of Appalachia’s Alpina section gives a firsthand look at his experiences meeting climbers Robert and Miriam Underhill in the 1950s, and asks whether Robert Underhill, who had written several anti-Semitic letters in the 1930s and 1940s, knew the author was Jewish.
