First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Frederick Albert Cook (1865-940) was an American doctor and explorer who, in 1906, claimed that he had reached the peak of Mount McKinley, making him the first to scale North America's highest mountain. He had not. At the time, there were questions, inquiries, and an endless trail of fake photographs, incorrect maps and bribed witnesses. This book's authors spent decades gathering evidence to disprove Cook's claim; this book details how false it was. It is 193 pages, including loads of photos and maps--and a color pull-out map. Unclipped dust jacket. Almost no shelfwear--the dust jacket is deliberately designed to look like an old photo album. Until now, it was unopened. But, just around the edges, the paper has started to yellow. That may also be deliberate--I don't know. But it's an expensively-produced piece. Beautiful book.

Add to basket"This engaging account of the sexual customs and practices of the early Celts is told against the background of European history during the first millennium A.D. While the Celts remained relatively isolated in the British Isles, they developed unique sexual customs and practices. Men and women enjoyed marriages with multiple partners and rough sexual equality. And their laws reflected not what people should do, but what they did do. However, the Celtic way of life could not long endure in isolation. After the fall of the Roman Empire, Europe was in ferment. Saxon invaders hungry for conquest swept across Celtic Britain, seemingly bent on genocide. Christian missionaries established outposts in the Celtic lands, competing with the traditional beliefs of the druids. Celtic society had to adapt to meet the new and confusing conditions found in the world. And as new viewpoints seeped into Celtic life, they gradually altered their perception of sexuality. Celtic Sexuality explores the impact of sexuality on war, politics, law and spirituality. Far from limiting itself to events of the distant past, this book provides an exciting and fresh examination of the human condition by emphasizing that the Celts of ancient times were little different from the men and women who walked the earth after them." See also a photo for the table of contents. The book contains 8 pages with illustrations. /// Half-cloth binding ; hardback, 176+[8] pp., 8° (16 x 24 cm), dust jacket slightly worn, condition: very good Book Language/s: English.
