Sobre este item
Bluntisham Books / Erskine Press, 1997. 1997 reprint. hardcover. 464pp, illustrations, maps, a beautifully produced book matching very closely the character and quality of the original first edition, buckram with gilt titling, small scuff mark in the margin of two leaves otherwise Fine.. A lovely more affordable edition of an Antarctic classic.. An important primary account of Scott's last expedition, including many illustrations not included in Scott. Taylor was the geologist and also the wittiest member of Scott's Terra Nova expedition, 1910-13. He had devices and notebooks hanging out of every pocket and a passion for being well equipped. He was enraptured with geology and would immerse himself into any debate. Cherry-Garrard said the arguments he led were legion and the hut was a merrier place for his presence.. Glacier Books are experienced and professional booksellers. We take pride in offering carefully described books and excellent customer service.
