Octavo. Original tan coloured cloth with gold medallion on the front panel. Photographic endpapers. Spine and boards a bit soiled. Frontispiece. 39 black and white illustrations. A very nice clean copy with the front panel and the flap of the dust wrapper preserved. Neate F17. Account of the remarkable and dangerous first flight over Everest on which they made a valuable film record. The book has a wonderful presentation inscription from the author to Roy Chapman Andrews as follows: To Roy "A real man" from Peregrine Dec 9th 34. A fantastic association copy from one explorer and pioneer to another. This book and a number of other items were purchased many years ago from Andrews son, George and I am just getting around to cataloging part of the collection now.
