I'm not a fan of Freedom of the Hills, despite it being considered the standard text. I find the prose dry to point of being unreadable, like it was written by committee.
I prefer the Mountaineering Handbook by Connally. It's engagingly written, though his opinions are controversial (he recommends the bowline with Yosemite finish as a tie-in).
