«Bambole di pietra. La leggenda delle Dolomiti» is the historical essay by Paolo Martini, published by Neri Pozza in paperback (128 pages, in Italian).
It reconstructs how the Dolomites became a legend: Déodat de Dolomieu explores the Alps in the eighteenth century and his studies inspire the name of dolomite; then climbers, writers and filmmakers feed the myth, and modern tourism transforms it. Cesare Battisti, Andreas Hofer, Reinhold Messner, Dino Buzzati and Luis Trenker appear.
The book belongs to the Piccola biblioteca Neri Pozza collection. Its original Italian publication dates from January 2018.
For readers interested in the history of mountaineering, mountain tourism and the cultural legend of the Dolomites.
