FULL TITLE: THE GEOLOGY AND PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY OF CHINESE TIBET, & ITS RELATION TO THE MOUNTAIN SYSTEM OF SOUTH-EASTERN ASIA FROM OBSERVATIONS MADE DURING THE PERCY SLADEN EXPEDITION 1922. Gregory, J.W. and C.J. Gregory. London, 1925, 1st edition. In Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. 126 pp, plates, maps, 1 fold-out. Geology studies in the Himalaya. Large-format paperback, Fine (Actually New!).

Geology studies in the Himalayan regions of the Chinese-Burma border. Although published 75 years ago, this book is still in perfectly new condition! An account of scientific results of Gregory's expedition in 1922 in the area of Minya Konka (Gongga Shan), on the western border of China and Eastern Tibet (Sichuan province, central China, in the Daxue Mountains).

From the website of The Geological Society of London: John Walter Gregory (1864-1932) was an intrepid Scottish explorer, stratigrapher, invertebrate palaeontologist and geomorphologist who undertook a number of adventures to India, Spitzbergen, Australia and Africa and the Himalayas.

He was the first professor at the University of Melbourne, where he travelled to the "Dead Heart" (his term) of the continent. From Glasgow University he mounted expeditions to Libya, Angola, India and the East African Rift Valley, as well as Chinese Tibet. He wrote over 300 papers on a bewilderingly wide variety of geological topics.
