London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1950. First edition in this format, being the first issue of the Uniform Edition. Illustrated with 24 of the author's photographs nicely reproduced on glossy double-sided plates, and with a map of the route taken over Mont Blanc. 8vo, in the original red cloth, lettered on the spine in black and in the original dustjacket. xi, 229 pp. A very pleasing copy, the text is essentially fine and very fresh, the binding strong and sturdy with very little wear but with some mottling and fading to the red dye, the jacket a bit toned on the spine and rear and with some very minor edge-rubbing but in all quite attractive and complete. FIRST PRINTING OF THE TITLE IN THE FORMAT UNIFORM WITH OTHER WORKS OF THE AUTHOR. The textblock of the Uniform Edition is somewhat larger then the original and uses a larger, bolder typeface. Smythe was one of the greatest mountaineers of his age, and was also a pioneer in mountain photography. In this book he recounts a mountaineering…
