The Ascent of Rum Doodle is a parody of the non-fictional chronicles of mountaineering expeditions that were popular during the 1950s, as many of the world's highest peaks were climbed for the first time... Though a parody, it has become one of the most famous and celebrated books of mountaineering literature. (Wiki).
