Bøker i H.W. Tilman: The Collected Edition-serien

It's 1938, the British have thrown everything they've got at Everest but they've still not reached the summit. War in Europe seems inevitable; the Empire is shrinking. Still reeling from failure in 1936, the British are granted one more permit by the Tibetans. Mount Everest 1938 by H.W. Tilman is the account of this pioneering expedition.

Mostly Mischief's ordinary title belies extraordinary voyages made by H.W. Tilman in both Arctic and Antarctic waters, including the first ascent of a mountain to start below sea level.

The scope of H.W. 'Bill' Tilman's When Men & Mountains Meet is broad, covering his disastrous expedition to the Assam Himalaya, a small exploratory trip into Sikkim, and his wartime heroics.
