Denali: Deception, Defeat, and Triumph

Includes the complete text of Frederick Cook's To the Top of the Continent, Belmore Browne's The Conquest of Mount McKinley, and Hudson Stuck's The Ascent of Denali, along with editorial comments by noted mountaineer Art Davidson for each book. Cook's claim of climbing Denali (Mount McKinley) have been proven not only false, but preposterous. Belmore Browne tragically had to turn back just short of the summit. Hudson Stuck became the first climber to actually reach the summit of Denali. Both the book and dust jacket are like new- see photos. Remainder mark on bottom of text block. We can't ship this book outside the US.
