Descrizione

8vo., First US Edition, with 9 plates on 8, and a full-page map and full-page plan in the text; cloth, gilt back, a very good, clean copy in price-clipped dustwrapper, the latter very lightly chafed at extremities. Published simultaneously with the UK edition. This is the first dedicated publication of Lashly's complete diary. Lashly was awarded the Albert Medal for rescuing 'Teddy' Evans; the harrowing story of their return is vividly portrayed in Cherry-Garrard's 'The Worst Journey in the World'. Uncommon in this condition. Spence 686 (recording the far scarcer UK edition).
