Softcover. Condition: Good. No Dust Jacket. Later Edition. 2001 Paperback Edition: xx, 167 pages. A very funny book, anyone who has ever been on a travel "expedition" will appreciate this book. First published in 1956 The Ascent of Rum Doodle quickly became established as a mountaineering classic. Outrageously funny spoof about the ascent of a 40,000-and-a-half-foot peak, with many portersI it thought it inspired by the 1953 conquest of Everest. But Bowman had drawn on the flavour and tone of earlier adventures, that of Bill Tilman and his 1937 account of the Nandi Devi expedition. The book is full of unforgettable characters.
