About This Item
London: John Murray, 1953. First UK edition. Near Fine/near fine. With wood engravings by Reynolds Stone, a map and 40 pages of photographs, this is one in a series of lavishly produced tributes to Stark's unusually fierce obsession with exploration. Constantly goading the authorities at home and abroad and overcoming the political climate and her own physical shortcomings, she blazed a tail for all future women explorers. some small tears to jacket edges.
