ABOUT
The autobiography of a mountaineer and Antarctic photographer.
From Everest to the South pole, from the top of the world to the bottom of the globe. These are words which at first sight read like the imaginative achievements of a character of fiction, but they sum up the adventures of George Lowe, the New Zealander who was condemned to spend his life as a cripple, who became a mountaineer and (by accident) one of the world's most celebrated photographers.
Well illustrated throughout with monochrome images and maps.

Immaculate with light wear on dust jacket, light spotting on end papers, otherwise clean and unmarked, no stamps or inscriptions. Images depict all need to know detail.
