Description

U.S.A: Houghton Mifflin, 1972. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/Good. 8vo - over 7. Houghton Mifflin, 1972. First Edition. Hardcover Ex-Library Book and Jacket in Good Condition. Richard Armstrong explores the 'loners'--those who have gone their own way and sought their own solitude--in deserts, on mountains, on the ocean. He discusses their adventures and exploits but he is more concerned with finding what they had in common, if anything--what drove them to explore miles of the Australian outback, climb the Himalayan peaks, sail the oceans. He helps the reader to understand the psychology of the loner, the toughness and ability to deprive themselves in order to reach grander heights of being. Clean, tight and solid volume; bottom and top board edges rubbed. Library markings as usual, otherwise internals are clean and free of any other markings. 185 pages. 8vo. 1972, Houghton Mifflin, USA
