The Mont-Blanc publishing adventure

It’s been a decade now since I embarked on the adventure of Éditions du Mont-Blanc, an adventure as exhilarating as a climb. Today, my passion for the mountains and climbing is no longer just expressed on the rock faces, it’s revealed on screen, echoes from the microphones of the conferences I have the pleasure of sharing, and of course finds an echo in the pages of the books I publish.
So, through Éditions du Mont-Blanc, I seek to inspire, educate and make people dream, creating bridges between the reader and the majestic peaks that rise beyond the pages. This literary adventure is as captivating as the mountains we so love to explore.

But my literary history doesn’t stop at publishing!
I’ve also been able to put pen to paper, writing 9 books, listed below:

  • Danseuse de roc, Denoël, 1987
  • Rocs nature (photos by Gérard Kosicki), Denoël, 1991
  • Annapurna: duo pour un 8000 with Érik Decamp, Arthaud, 1994
  • L’Apprenti Alpiniste: l’escalade, l’alpinisme et la montagne expliqués aux enfants (with Érik Decamp, illustrated by Gianni Bersezio), Hachette jeunesse, 1996
  • Ascensions, Arthaud, first published in 1997
  • Le Petit Alpiniste with Érik Decamp, illustrated by Claire Robert, Guérin, 2009
