Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Account of a bunch of crazy posh people who thought it would be a grand idea to fly over Mount Everest in the early 1930s with relatively basic equipment. It was there I suppose! Pretty decent looking copy with clean cloth boards although a little sun faded at the top edge… and, especially so, on the spine.Also a little slitting along the outer hinge of the back board, nothing too severe but significant enough to be worthy of a mention in this description. A little toning to the page block edges and end papers. No inscriptions. No dust jacket. Terrific copy on the whole.
