Recognition??

"Bonington has been recognised as one of the great explorers of modern times by St. Helen's School, Northwood, England."

Does St. Helen's School, Northwood, England have any special expertise in identifying great explorers of modern times? If so, perhaps this should be explained. If not, the sentence is of questionable relevance. PrivateSponge (talk) 07:11, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Authorship

15 books or 18? 143.232.210.38 (talk) 16:10, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Boundless Horizons is an omnibus collection of CB's three autobiographical books and Great Climbs is an edited collection, so that leaves 16 by my reckoning. I edited the article to avoid mentioning a specific number.Lacewing (talk) 03:32, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
