Mountaineers Books, 1985. Hardcover. Like New/Very Good . 9x6x1. A major addition to the English-language literature on the highest peak of Africa. The exploration and eventual conquest of Kilimanjaro were carried out by the Germans. Much of the early literature was only available in German until the Tanganyika Society’s Commemorative Issue on Kilimanjaro appeared in English in 1965 (revised in 1974). Harald Lange has utilized much of this source material in presenting a well-organized, encyclopedic view of the mountain’s history. Other chapters deal in considerable depth with such topics as the volcanic origin of the mountain, the flora and fauna of the various climatic zones and the Wachagga tribe which populates its base and provides the guides and porters which accompany most modem expeditions up the mountain. Yet another interesting chapter is devoted to weather patterns and their impact on vegetation.
