About This Item
New York: The American Alpine Club, 1946. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Near Fine/No Jacket. FIRST PRINTING of First Edition. The book is in basically fine condition with the only flaw being sunning of the spine which is nearly universal with this book that was never issued with a dust jacket like several other American Alpine Club publications. Probably a very small production since all other books published by the AAC during this period were of 500 or less copies. The book has a former owner name and address on the front pastedown otherwise no owner marks or writing on any pages, no foxing, tight biding, clean. The book measures 223mm tall x 138mm and has 297 pages. PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK BEING OFFERED.
