{"product_id":"space-below-my-feet","title":"Space Below My Feet","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1945, when Gwen Moffat was in her twenties, she deserted from her post as a driver and dispatch rider in the Army and went to live rough in Wales and Cornwall, climbing and living on practically nothing. She hitch-hiked her way around, travelling from Skye to Chamonix and many places in between, with all her possessions on her back, although these amounted to little more than a rope and a sleeping bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the money ran out, she worked as a forester, went winkle-picking on the Isle of Skye, acted as the helmsman of a schooner and did a stint as an artist's model. And always there were the mountains, drawing her away from a 'proper' job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout this unique story, there are acutely observed accounts of mountaineering exploits as Moffat tackles the toughest climbs and goes on to become Britain's leading female climber - and the first woman to qualify as a mountain guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGwen Moffat was the first woman to qualify as a mountain guide in the UK and is one of the greatest female climbers this country has ever produced. She is also a prolific writer and novelist, with more than 30 books to her name.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"closed","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52912569090264,"sku":"BOMSSPACE","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/8222\/0504\/files\/space-below-feet.jpg?v=1793930994","url":"https:\/\/marketavenue.shop\/products\/space-below-my-feet","provider":"Westmere House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
