Camera on the Crags

Description

Published by Heinemann, London, 1975, 1st UK Edition, D/w, Nr. Fine.   Two of the best of the early climbers in the Lake District were George and Ashley Abraham, ‘The Keswick Brothers’ – they started climbing in the early 1890s, teamed up with the leading ‘tiger’ of the day, Owen Glynne Jones, and rarely went out without their camera and a dozen glass-plate negatives.  They climbed and photographed in the Lake District, North Wales and Scotland, and this volume provides both a history of the brothers and their photography, and a superb collection of around 100 of the best of the brothers’ photographs.
