Condition: Very Good. xviii, 150, map, b/w photos. . HB. Oblong 4to (232x253mm). Vg in d/w. Presents a remarkable window into the pioneering days of British cave exploration beneath the Mendip Hills. Drawing on Harry Savory's original diaries and richly illustrated photographic record, the book captures the hardships, hazards, and sense of discovery experienced by early 20th-century cavers working with minimal equipment and limited knowledge of the underground systems they were mapping. John Savory's editorial commentary provides valuable historical context and biographical insight, situating his father's work within the wider tradition of Mendip speleology and early scientific exploration of Britain's cave systems.
