Joe Simpson (Rugby Player)
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Henry Joseph 'Joe' Simpson was an English-born international rugby union forward who played club rugby for Cardiff Rugby Football Club and international rugby for Wales. He won only three caps for Wales but captained them for one match during the first years of the national team. Although born in England, there were few rules regarding nationality in the early period of national rugby, and when in 1884, in a game against England, Frank Purdon withdrew in the morning before the game and Simpson was selected to take his place. The game took place at Cardigan Fields in Leeds, which a disappointing crowd of only 2,000 witnessed, and though Wales lost Simpson was reselected for the remaining two games of the 1884 Home Nations Championship. Wales lost again in the second game of the tournament against Scotland, but in the final match of the competition, in a home game at the Cardiff Arms Park, Simpson was given the captaincy

Il richiamo del silenzio
Joe Simpson ha vissuto una vita all'insegna dell'avventura e caratterizzata dalla presenza incombente della morte. Ha sofferto la perdita di compagni di cordata, è stato lui stesso vittima di un gravissimo incidente nelle Ande peruviane, e ha continuato a riflettere sulla natura sulla natura di questa passione divorante ma fatale alla quale ha dato tutto se stesso. E che potrebbe uccidere anche lui... La morte di un carissimo amico lo spinge a prendere una decisione: è tempo ormai di allontanarsi dalle montagne di una vita. Non prima, però, di compiere un'ultima impresa: la Nord dell'Eiger, la parete Nord per eccellenza, che Simpson vuole salire come suo personale canto del cigno... In una racconto dal ritmo serrato che conduce il lettore attraverso esperienze estreme, da una slavina in Bolivia, all'arrampicata su ghiaccio nelle Alpi e in Colorado, al parapendio in Spagna, fino al confronto finale con la Nord dell'Eiger, Simpson svela l'intima verità dell'arrampicare che risiede in quel delicatissimo equilibrio fra il potere della mente e le fragilità del corpo.
