Description

Published by The Times of India, Bombay, India, 1962, 1st English Language Edition, Card covers with Sealed D/w (as issued, some wear), V.G.    With Himalayan mountaineering in India barely a decade old, this first account of exploration & survey of the Himalayas from an Indian perspective was timely. The first ‘Indian summit’, Trisul, was climbed in 1951 and by 1960 the First Indian Expedition to Everest was turned back barely 800 feet from the summit. Also includes climbs on Annapurna III, Kamet, Nun & Nilkantha.
