Cloth. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 1st Edition; xv, 296pp, 80 plate leaves, 8 maps [3 folding colour]. Original apple green cloth covers with gilt titling to spine rather than the spine label. Lower page edges untrimmed. No dustjacket. The British Graham Land Expedition was a completely amateur expedition, except for their ship's Royal Navy Captain and engineer. "The objectives were simple: experience the adventure of polar living, matching danger and daring while exploring Graham Land by ship, sledge and airplane" "To sum up the results of a complex expedition working over a long period is difficult; especially as the scientists of the party will not be prepared to make any definite statements about the research in their particular branches of science for many months, when they will have finished working up their results. But as far as our exploratory work is concerned, we were able to work in a previously unvisited part of the Antarctic and make two major discoveries. First, that Graham Land is part of the Antarctic Continent and not an archipelago, as was previously thought, and secondly, that a great channel running approximately north and south separates Graham Land from Alexander Land. Since our return to England, His Majesty the King has graciously given permission for this channel to be called King George VI Sound." - Author's preface.(Conrad 302, Renard 1337 and 1338, Spence 1017, SPRI 14274). Gift dedication to previous owner on front end paper. There is splitting of the cloth but overall it is in very good condition. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 2 kilogram.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Bound in full green cloth with a red spine label. Generally tight and clean with a bookplate on the front pastedown and some fading to the bottom inch of the spine where the jacket is lacking. A well made book with 296 pages, dozens of illustrations including some fold outs in sepia tone. Text and illustrations are nice. The jacket generally lacking is present and around 90% complete. The front panel is almost entirely present but beginning on the bottom left corner is lacking the bottom 1.5 around the spine and half of the back panel. One of the giant oversized flaps is presumably price clipped. Still a presentable jacket with an attractive picture of ice flows and land etc.
