The original Stone Monkey interviewed as his new memoir launches.
Johhny Dawes and an advert for a posh shaver in this weekend's Observer and on line on the Guardian web site.
A quick heads-up that Peter Beaumont's Observer interview with iconic rock climber and original Stone Monkey, Johhny Dawes in on the Guardian web site at www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2011/dec/21/johnny-dawes-interview-rock-climbing.
One of the more interesting climbers of the past few decades, Dawes has always ploughed his own furrow with an 'untypical' approach to climbing. Really readable, interesting stuff. The book should be good too.
