First Edition
First Editions. Small Quartos. In three volumes, mixed editions. frontispieces, 356, 339 (1 p. ad) and 372pp. Each volume illustrated with amazing photographic images and maps (some folding). To climb mount Everest, it was imperative to locate many men called Coolies who were accustomed to living in cold climates to help, cooks were needed and translators to translate to the men especially the Tibetan language and more. It took months to prepare. All the men needed specific clothing, sleeping bags and of course, food. When the expedition began its journey, it included nine Europeans including two surveyors. It also included 50 Coolies and 100 mules. A fascinating journey. All volumes bound in cloth, one green cloth and two in blue cloth, all lettered in gilt, all have some foxing to fore-edges, the green volumes has bumped corners, and previous owner's names, each volume displays only ocassional spots of foxing. In gernal, a very nice set.
