Having a copy of Blessed's Quest For The Lost World; I can report that he writes at a similar volume, and lives at that volume. The anecdote about him
being refused admittance to a mountain trail on account of his age - at which point he grabs his guide and body presses him while shouting out 'SEVENTY?
SEVENTY ISN'T SWEET FANNY ADAMS!" is wonderful. I doubt the phrase was Fanny Adams, though it might involve something one would do to her after
several drinks.
