About This Item
The British Mount Kongur expedition was the first allowed into China - its purpose to combine a four man alpine-style ascent of one of the world's highest unclimbed peaks with the research of a four man scientific team. The narrative blends the excitement of climbing exploration with a layman's summary of a valuable high-altitude scientific programme. 224 pages with numerous colour and black and white photos and several maps throughout. Book in fine condition with bookshop sticker on inside cover and shop mark on bottom of a few pages. Dust jacket in near fine condition with price clip and minor bumping and wear.
