1st edition. Fine condition. AAC Library Bookplate on verso of front cover.
From the book jacket: “George Mallory’s disappearance on Everest in 1924 secured a place for him as one of the accepted heroes of the 20th century; it tended, at the same time, to overshadow the course of his life as a whole and to obscure the shape and complexity of his personality….This books shows him not only as a mountaineer of extraordinary skill in action, but as a man who developed lively interests in the fields of literature, the arts, and the main social and political controversies of his day; and as one whose circle of friends included some of his most brilliant contemporaries.”
