Ex Libris, usual stamps, pockets, labels.… Shelf wear, covers bumped, grubby, contents clean. The British Graham Land Expedition was a completely amateur expedition, except for their ship's Royal Navy Captain and engineer. "The objectives were simple: experience the adventure of polar living, matching danger and daring while exploring Graham Land by ship, sledge and airplane" "To sum up the results of a complex expedition working over a long period is difficult; especially as the scientists of the party will not be prepared to make any definite statements about the research in their particular branches of science for many months, when they will have finished working up their results. But as far as our exploratory work is concerned, we were able to work in a previously unvisited part of the Antarctic and make two major discoveries. First, that Graham Land is part of the Antarctic Continent and not an archipelago, as was previously thought, and secondly, that a great channel running approximately north and south separates Graham Land from Alexander Land. Since our return to England, His Majesty the King has graciously given permission for this channel to be called King George VI Sound." - Author's preface.(Conrad 302, Renard 1337 and 1338, Spence 1017, SPRI 14274) Quantity Available: 1.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. First Edition. London, Chatto and Windus, 1938 (first edition). Quarto, xvi, 296 pages with several maps and illustrations plus 81 pages of plates and 4 colour maps (3 folding). Green cloth with a contrasting gilt-lettered cloth label on the spine; top edge dyed green, bott…om edge uncut; endpapers a little tanned, with early ownership details on the front free endpaper; an excellent copy with the very good unclipped dustwrapper (unevenly sunned, with a crease across the front panel and some loss along the top edge, affecting a few letters of the first word in the title on the spine and front cover). John Riddoch Rymill (1905-1968), polar explorer and farmer, was the leader of the expedition; he was born in Penola, South Australia, a grandson of the pioneer John Riddoch. 'Rymill's party proved that Graham Land was part of a continental extension (now the Antarctic Peninsula). They discovered a southern, permanently frozen channel, later named King George VI Sound, islanding Alexander I Land (now Alexander Island) and extending to the Bellingshausen Sea. The B.G.L.E. logistics were innovative in Antarctica. Outstanding sledging with dogs, especially over sea ice, was backed by air support and depot laying; the use of a motor launch probing ahead to plot a route for "Penola" through uncharted, rock-strewn waters, was original and successful. The "Penola" covered 26,896 miles (43,283 km) mostly under sail' ('Australian Dictionary of Biography').
