Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Near fine condition. First edition. Folio. Unpaginated. Original black cloth with silver lettering on cover and spine, in original protected photo-illustrated dustjacket, black lettering on spine. Frontispiece photograph. Signed Josef Hoflehner on title page. Illustrated with more than sixty striking full page photographs. "It's mid February and the days are still short up here close to the Northern Arctic Circle. The weather report for the next few days doesn't bode well. A powerful blizzard is prophesied, with heavy snowfalls, gale-force winds and temperatures falling down to 15 degrees Celsius below zero. We were urgently advised that now was not the right time to leave for the craggy West Fjords of Iceland,for the thinly populated and nearly deserted area. Yet it's precisely these weather conditions that particularly appeal to me and I am already looking forward to this remote part of Iceland." (Hoflehner). Text in English and German. Contains photo index of plates at rear. Seller Inventory # 52674
