Book description
This vintage book contains Francis Younghusband's 1926 account of a mountaineering expedition to the peak of Mount Everest. This fascinating and insightful volume is highly recommended for climbing enthusiasts, and constitutes a must-have for collectors of antiquarian literature of this ilk. Lieutenant Colonel Sir Francis Edward Younghusband (1863 - 1942) was an officer in the British Army, as well as an explorer and author. He is most famous for his writings on Asia and foreign policy. Many old works such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
