New York: Broadway Books, 2001. 239 pp, large 8vo (9 1/2" H). Map endpapers. "In the spring of 1999, armed with little more than a descriptiion from a book and a map labeled 'all elevations unknown', Sam Lightner and his German rock-climbing buddy, Volker, found themselves deep in the jungles of Borneo on a mission to climb a mountain that was only rumored to exist. They had only their climbing expertise to rely on and a copy of a little-known book titled 'World Within', written by Major Tom Harrisson, a British World War II soldier who had been one of the first white men ever to explore the interior jungles of the island and interact with its native peoples. He had also constructed one of the most daring and unusual campaigns in military history: In 1945, he had been assigned the near-impossible mission of parachuting blindly into the thick Borneo rain forests to unite the feuding native tribes - who then had a grisly habit of cutting off heads - against the Japanese in… Read More

Balustrol, New Jersey : Baltusrol Golf Club, 1995. 166 pp, 4to (12 1/4" H). Profusely illustrated with color and b&w photographs, reproductions. "The story of Baltusrol is more than a history of a golf club. It is an integral part of the larger story of the evolution of the greatest game of all. In 1895, during the infancy of golf in America, New York socialite Louis Keller and three other enthusiastic gentlemen founded the club. They didn't know much about golf, but Baltusrol quickly became one of the most celebrated clubs in the world. Then in 1901 the six-year old United States Golf Association (USGA) selected Baltusrol to host the U.S. Women's Amateur Championship. A remarkable tradition of hosting national championships had begun. In nine of ten decades of the 20th century, Baltusrol has been the site of at least one national championship." Very minor wear at bottom edge. Dust jacket has areas of light edge wrinkling, light rubbing - mainly on rear panel. . Hard… Read More

Scarborough, Ontario: Prentice-Hall, 1988. 356 pp, 9 1/4" H. B&w photographs. "When the Edmonton Oilers won their first Stanley Cup in 1984, Albertans rejoiced. They had waited 91 years for just this moment. When they won it again in 1985, a new era in hockey was born: The Edmonton Era. Just six years after being incorporated into the National Hockey League, the Oilers had won back-to-back Stanley Cups and rewritten half the record book. In these few years they had grown from a cocky, immature team into a championship team with character and charisma. Kevin Lowe describes all of this and more. In particular, he talks about his teammates - the magnificent Mark Messier, the Flying Finns, the unbeatable Grant Fuhr, Boy Wonder Wayne Gretzky and, of course, the controversial Glen Sather. (This) is the complete, dynamic chronicle of the team that Gretzky helped to propel to greatness, told from the point of view of (his) roommate and teammate Kevin Lowe." Slight wrinkle at… Read More

Description:
Victoria, B.C.: Orca, 1997. 215 pp, 9 1/4" H. B&w photographs. "Roderick Haig-Brown's fame as a writer, a conservationist and judge made him a widely recognized public figure. His books on fly fishing brough him an international reputation and visitors from all over the world. His wife Ann shared in many aspects of Roderick's public life, while also establishing her own more local, but nonetheless significant, reputation as an inspirational librarian and teacher, and a community activist. Now their eldest daugher Valerie has written an intimate biography of her parents that reveals the private lives behind the public figures - their intense devotion to each other, their mutual love of books, the daily delights and frustrations of life on a small farm while juggling careers of writing, teaching, judging and raising four children. Much of the book is based on private correspondence between Ann and Roderick, both before and during their marriage, as well as Roderick's early… Read More
