Author: Gaston Rébuffat
Gaston Rébuffat was a well-known French alpinist and mountain guide. He was a recipient of France's prestigious Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur in 1984.
Known for his lyrical writing and his ability to convey not only the dangers of mountaineering but the pure exaltation of the climb, Rébuffat authored several books. His most famous written work is Etoiles et Tempêtes (Starlight and Storm), first published in French in 1954, and in English in 1956.
