Sobre este artículo
London: Kaye & Ward, 1967. Third Impression. Hardcover. Near Fine/Fair. 8vo 8" - 9" tall. Stated Third Impression of the English translation of the true First Edition. A magnificent, almost how-to manual from a distinguished French alpinist, augmented with many score black-and-white and full-color plates, printed on high-gloss paper. Sturdy, attractive, tightly bound hardcover bound in a linen buckram cloth, clean, unmarked interior, with minimal rubbing to extremities. Dust jacket present, but in chipped and worn and tape-repaired condition. Rebuffat rose to international prominence in 1950 as one of the four principals of a French expedition during the first ascent of Annapurna, the highest peak then summitted. Rebuffat climbed all six of the great north faces of the Alps: the Grandes Jorasses, the Piz Badile, the Petit Dru, the Matterhorn, the Cima Grande di Lavaredo, and the Eiger. 206 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.
