Hardcover. Condition: Good. Hardcover, bound in blue cloth with white lettering and a white and gray mountaineering illustration on the front cover. Binding good and tight, although there's a little wear to the spine. Title page dated 1903. Nice portrait of Melchior Anderegg for frontispiece, with tissue guard. 299 pages. Illustrated with photographs throughout, a couple of which have come unglued and are set in place but no longer tipped in. Pages have uneven foxing from poor paper quality, although never so bad as to render the text difficult to read - just a lot of little tan blooms on the off-white paper. I suspect it is common in most copies. The author, Elizabeth Alice Frances Hawkins-Whitshed Le Blond, was an accomplished mountain climber as well as writer. Please email with questions or to request photos. If you see a photo beside this listing, please be aware that it's an ABE Stock Photo (whatever that is) and not a photo of this book.
