	Harz Rocks 1 - Okertal Axel Hake, Geoquest, 2019 Purchase this book Rough translation from the publisher (Geoquest): Climbing in the western part of Harz is purely on granite. Rough but charming climbs are located in a beautiful natural environment. Old forests with beautifully formed crags sometimes right next to streams make Harz one of the most picturesque climbing areas north of the Alps. Sport and trad routes coexist and some of the best pure crack routes of northern Germany can be found in the region. The area is a great alternative to the more popular (and often crowed) limestone area Ith. The guidebook includes perfect pictures showing the routes, detailed information about access to individual crags, route descriptions, star rating, and suggested gear to bring.

International : Europe

	Europe - Sport Vertical By David Atchison-Jones, Jingo Wobbly Publishing Purchase this book This is an overview book that sets out to list every single crag on the European continent a la Tim Toula's "Rock N' Road". Intended for a broad audience of various languages, the book uses an absurdly complex assortment of symbols & numbers to "describe" each crag without the use of text. The book is in full color, with plentiful glossy photos of various crags. This isn't a guidebook in the classic sense, but it can be a good way to learn about the locations & raw statistics of the multitude of little known crags in Europe. The book indicates number of routes, height of cliff, length of approach, sun exposure, and relative quality for more than 2600 sport, bouldering & alpine crags. The book also points you in the direction of the pertinent local guidebooks. Its a nice reference book, but probably not too useful once you're on the road. Set it on the coffee table or near your procelain throne for a few minutes of inspiration when the local weather is bad.
	Rock Climbing Europe Stewart Green, Falcon Guides Purchase this book Rock Climbing Europe is the perfect starting point for Americans on their way to Europe. The book is far from comprehensive, so ensure that your destination is included before laying out $40 or so. If your destination is included, expect explicit, robust, American-style route descriptions (a rarity in European guides) & photo-topos, all prefaced with a good deal of "Lonely Planet"-style traveler information. The book also follows the Falcon Guide system of providing tips on lodging/camping and where to find amenities in the local area. The book is encyclopedic is size, so you may want to xerox the key sections if you're going for a short trip.
