Dad really enjoyed the book - the quotes in it are from a piece he wrote for the Derby Telegraph.
Have also procured the DVD and watched it with him. Understandably dissapointed that didnt get a mention and didnt seem to be on any of the pics
However some additional details to add to the video. My dad remembers that Neil was apparently closer to the dogleg than shown. Also one of the guys at the prologue states he thought he was the only one from original rescue that returned with Joe Berger 2 weeks later. My Dad was there to collect Orpheus Club equipment.
Also he was wondering why Ron (Peters) didnt get more of a mention given what Dad remembers of his repeated efforts to get a rope to Neil. Maybe Ron refused to be interviewed and hence his part was reduced. Im sure he will ask him this weekend.
Happy New Year to all
and remember "Cavers do it deeper"
