ISBN10: 0195201353, ISBN13: 9780195201352, [publisher: Oxford Univ Pr, New York, NY] Hardcover First Edition Oxford University, NY, 1979. First edition. Book has ever so slight slant and edge wear. Dust jacket has wear at top of spine, some fading to front and rear panels, somewhat more fading to spine (letters still legible on all three sides) plus a few scattered smaller blemishes. Not the best dj, but quite serviceable. B & W and color photos throughout plus maps, drawings, as well as an Everest chronicle, synopses of expeditions and first ascents. End-papers have two different color photos, always a good sign of a more thoughtfully prepared book. The Werner Herzog of climbers.
