Item description from seller

The Brodie Books, Number Forty-Four. 180 x 122 mm; saddle-stitched red card wrappers; pp. 63; some illustrations. Wrappers a bit tanned and worn, with archival tape repairs to reverse of spine fold; corners curled; some foxing. Fair to good. Uncommon little primer on the subject, with some outstanding anecdotes from the key figures of the Heroic Age. Publication date suggested by OCLC. "The anecdotes of Polar Exploration have been chosen mainly to show the terrible, yet wonderful, conditions under which the intrepid voyagers into this grim unknown had to labour.".
