Kim Stanley Robinson's Escape From Kathmandu is a light-hearted fantasy tribute to the world of extreme mountain climbing follows the adventures of two American expatriates living in Nepal.

Living in the city of Kathmandu in the Kingdom of Nepal are dozens of American and British expatriates who are in love with the Himalayas. George Fergusson is one of them--he works as a trek guide for Take You Higher, Ltd., leading groups of tourists into the back country and occasionally assisting on serious climbs. George Freds Fredericks is another--a tall, easy-going American who converted to Buddhism while in college. He visited Nepal one year and never went home.

The adventures started when George and Freds got together over the capture of a Yeti--an abominable snowman--by a scientific expedition. The thought of such a wild and mysterious creature in captivity--in prison--was too much for them to bear. And in freeing the Yeti, a great partnership was born. George and Freds will go on to greater heights as they explore the mysteries of Nepal, from Shangri-La to Kathmandu's governmental bureaucracy.

The book contents are good. Format? Not so great/
Format: Hardcover
The text of this volume is exhaustive, but the photos are substandard. These need some enhancement and a lot of enlargement. Due to its its extreme weight, the book should have been issued in at least two volume, possibly three,. The third volume could profitably be devoted to enhanced photos: those used seem to adhere to the principal that a photo is worth <100 words.

Smells great, and absorbs well! Love it!
Scent: Majestic Oud, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This product is great. I use it on my goatee. It smells great and makes my beard and mustache nice and soft. I can't stop touching it. I wasn't sure what particular fragrance to pick, so I randomly chose Majestic Oud. Sometimes the ladies don't like kissing a guy with facial hair, but they do when it smells good, and it's soft! It absorbs well; you just have to work it in. Best when the beard is softened after you wash your face, or after a shower. Wish this product came in a larger size, but a little goes a long way, after all, it's oil. If you want a touchable, tamed beard, I think this is a good one. It's all natural, good quality, and not at all sticky or gooey. It's not messy; it absorbs into the beard quickly. You still have to wash your hands, or just rub it into your hands.
