Jim Eyre was a Lancastrian caver, born in 1925 in Kent, who is known as being one of the first european cavers to explore the caves of Asia. In 1946 in Lancaster, Eyre helped to found the Red Rose Cave and Pot Hole Club, where he was prominent in the earliest exploration of the Ease Gill Caverns. Jim was also a known author of adventure literature. Two early books, It's Only a Game and The Game Goes On, included more than 160 photographs, and cartoons of his characteristically knobbly-kneed explorers. His 1961 autobiography, The Cave Explorers, sold out. Half a dozen other books have followed, including Race Against Time: A History of the Cave Rescue Organisation about the team based in Clapham, north Yorkshire. Eyre is particularly well known as an active member of the Clapham-based Cave Rescue Organisation, and he took a major role during the Mossdale Caverns tragedy. == Bibliography == ''The Cave Explorers - 1981'' ''Race Against Time: A History of the Cave Rescue Organisation - 1988'' ''The Ease Gill System: Forty Years of Exploration - 1989'' ''It's Only a Game - 2004'' ''The Game Goes On - 2009'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jim Eyre (caver)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
