First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. First Edition, First Impression. New set in publisher's eco-wrapping, as received directly from The Folio Society. This is a slightly imperfect copy with a little rippling to the cloth on the back and top panels of the slipcase, and tiny bumps to the spine ends of both books. These are minor aesthetic flaws and the set is as new and unread. The books are bound in printed and blocked cloth with silver page tops and blue endpapers. Volume 1: 536 pages with 268 colour and black & white photographs including 2 fold-out panoramas (one 6 page, one 4 page); Volume 2: 208 pages and 2 maps. Landscape format measuring 9¼'' x 10¾''. Housed in a blue pictorial slipcase. Compiled, written and edited by Peter Gillman for The Folio Society, 'Everest: From Reconnaissance to Summit' is an exclusive record of five key expeditions, introduced by Wade Davis and Jan Morris with superlative photography from the Royal Geographical Society archives. Commissioned exclusively for The Folio Society, 'Everest' is the ultimate account of five key expeditions to the summit of the world, using spectacular photography and reportage from the men who went there. Marking the 100th anniversary of the earliest British reconnaissance in 1921, it also covers the first attempt on the summit in 1922 and the tragic 1924 expedition that claimed the lives of Mallory and Irvine. It shows how the mountain proved unconquerable by a new generation of climbers in 1933, before the triumphant ascent of Hillary and Tenzing in 1953. The first volume, 'A Photographic History,' collects 268 of the most remarkable mountain photographs ever taken, including breathtaking panoramas, steep gorges, glaciers, ice-fields, pinnacles and close-ups of the ascents. The men's testimony makes up the second volume, 'An Eyewitness History', in articles and dispatches, memoirs, official reports and private letters, each accompanied by a commentary by Gillman. 'Everest' is introduced by Wade Davis ? an authority on the early expeditions, who puts them in their historical context of the 'Great Game' played out between the British and Russian empires and, in the next century, the First World War. The preface is from Jan Morris, last surviving member of the 1953 expedition until her death in 2020. The set is in new condition and publisher's wrapping as received directly from The Folio Society but has a couple of minor imperfections as detailed above. Additional photos available on request or these may be viewed on my eBay listing. HEAVY/OVERSIZE. U.K. postage at default rate but international buyers will be asked for extra. Enquiries welcome. All orders professionally packed, tracked and/or signed for, and fully insured.
