"Walter Bonatti was the last and most significant representative of classical mountaineering." These are words often spoken by Reinhold Messner, which best describe the greatness of the mountaineer born in Bergamo and raised in Monza before he began mountaineering and living for the mountains. During his sixteen-year mountaineering career, Bonatti was simultaneously number one with his pioneering ascents in the Dolomites and Mont Blanc, and in expeditions to eight-thousanders like Gasherbrum IV. This ascent Bonatti made together with Carlo Mauri on a pioneering route in 1958. The description of all these achievements, some unparalleled to this day, make his book "My Mountains" exceptionally special. But this book is more than that; it is the first book Bonatti wrote and which became a cornerstone of mountaineering literature. Nearly 60 years after its writing, it remains extremely relevant and alive, just like classic works in world literature.

In "My Mountains," Bonatti recounts his achievements during the first ten years dedicated to mountaineering, but unlike his predecessors and successors, he does not describe so much the altitude, conditions, or temperature, but rather the emotions a person can experience during the encounter with wild nature. This is the great advantage of the book you hold in your hands. It has exceptional literary value and it would be a mistake to view it solely as a specialized mountain book. When writing "My Mountains," Bonatti was only 30 years old. While he is now recognized as the greatest mountaineer of his time, it is also true that for a long period he had no opportunity to publish his books to reach readers and become masterpieces over time. At best, he could rely on journalistic publications, but the truth is that he could trust no one. In his personal life, Bonatti experienced great disappointments related to mountaineering and the people with whom he participated in expeditions. The greatest of these disappointments, given significant space in the book, is related to the 1954 K2 expedition. Bonatti took part in a large Italian expedition that achieved the first ascent of the second highest peak on Earth. This was an exceptional feat followed with great interest throughout Italy. The world also watched the ambitions of the Italians to climb an eight-thousander, as up to that point only three eight-thousanders had been conquered. During this expedition, Walter Bonatti did not reach the summit, but the success of the two climbers who did was due to him—due to the sacrifice he made to carry the heavy oxygen bottles needed for the final summit attack. This incredible contribution was "forgotten" in the official expedition report. For Bonatti, honesty and consistency in actions were always of great importance; he was unable to accept compromises. Bonatti never forgave this betrayal, which was not personal but a betrayal of truth and facts. This event convinced him that he should continue his path related to mountains and mountaineering, but alone.
