Libro
Soft Cover. Condizione: New. Third, revised, edition. Originally published in German in 1938 and in English in 1939, this account was written by two geologists whose eight months journey in the Himalayas took them through the then "forbidden" lands of Nepal and Tibet, culminating at Mt. Kailas, "The Throne of The Gods". Apart form their geological studies, altitudes were measured by using barometric observations. The lives of the people, animals, and plants were recorded, both among the crags and glaciers of the high mountains and also on the way there through the plains and foothills of India. The return journey included a visit to the source of the Ganges. A wealth of period photos and maps makes this book a valuable resource for naturalists, geologists, and mountaineers. With a new foreword by A. Gansser. 385 pp., 120 pp. illus., 1 col. map, 1 foldout chart, 1 foldout panoramic view. A new/unread copy; covers lightly toned as is common with this publisher's books. Size: 21 x 15 cm.

Original bright green cloth with gilt lettering on spine, in original photo-illustrated dustjacket, white lettering on spine. Translated by Eden and Cedar Paul. "Dr. Heim, the leading geologist of Switzerland, was in command of a Swiss expedition to parts of the Himalayas that were to all intents unknown. The purpose of the expedition was mainly geological and was concerned chiefly with the Central Himalayas; during their eight months' journey the travelers crossed the frontiers of both Tibet and Nepal. Traveling with no elaborate retinue, the expedition contrived to bring back a number of valuable results. The authors here recount their experiences and discoveries, with their observations of the lives of men, animals, and plants, not only among the crags and glaciers of the high mountains, but also on the way thither." (Publisher). Magnificently illustrated scientific work, containing an account of the first Swiss expedition to the Kumaon Himalayas. Contain two hundred and twenty plates in photogravure, eighteen in-text sketches, eleven musical items, two panoramas and one relief map. Dustjacket with wear mainly along top edge, medium chips around spine. Binding with minor wear. Dustjacket in overall good-, binding in very good, interior in near fine condition.
