Under Scott's Command. Lashly's Antarctic Diaries. With an Introduction by Sir Vivian Fuchs. [Third Impression].

Descripción

8vo., Third Impression, with 9 plates on 8, and a full-page map and full-page plan in the text; blue cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly sunned at backstrip. Published four months after the first edition. This is the first dedicated publication of Lashly's complete diary. Lashly was awarded the Albert Medal for rescuing 'Teddy' Evans; the harrowing story of their return is vividly portrayed in Cherry-Garrard's 'The Worst Journey in the World'. The UK edition is considerably scarcer than its American (Taplinger) counterpart, especially in the dustwrapper. Spence 686. N° de ref. del artículo 17116
