Mountaineering
The one and only bible of mountaineering. Reading this monster requires a huge investment of time, energy, and patience. It is not only long, but too fucking verbose and the intonation is boring.
Having said that, I am extremely happy that I went though it. I now have the theoretical basics to do about anything on the mountains on this planet. In practice, however, it's a different story. The book will open your eyes and make you aware of the many skills you need to not die out there. It takes several months to read about, but a lifetime to practice them.
If you read something like this, it will motivate you to go further and work to become a mountaineer. Because it would be a pity to spend all this effort and acquire all this knowledge for nothing.
