This is a comprehensive guidebook covering the rock climbing in the Durance Valley around the towns of Briancon, Ailefroide, La Vallouise, L'Argentiere-la-bessee and Guillestre.  The Durance Valley is located in the Hautes Alps near Grenoble that is sometimes referred to as the Southern Alps or the Ecrins.  The guidebook describes 11 separate rock climbing areas and 88 major crags ranging from single pitch and multi-pitch sports routes to long classic alpine ascents up to 600m long.  The 11 main areas are Vallee de la Claree et Vallee Etroite, Vallee de la Guisane, Briancon, Vallouise, L'Argentiere - La Bessee, La Roche de Rame, Freissinieres, Valle de Tramouillon - Saint Crepin, Guillestre, Queyras, and Embrunais.
