Detailed Product Description

NY, 1958. 177 pp, photos. Justice Douglas describes some of the most celebrated and dangerous mountain-climbing expeditions and tells of his own journey through the mountain ranges with a Tibetan caravan. He recounts some of the most famous and dangerous experiences climbing mountains like Everest, Annapura and K2.

Stories about the Himalayas picked up by the author during his travels in the Himalayas in 1950, 1951 and 1955. William Orville Douglas (1898-1980) was the longest serving Justice on the U.S. Supreme Court serving from 1939 to 1975. He was somewhat controversial for his rather adventurous style and was sometimes referred to as 'Wild Bill'. He was an inveterate traveller and wrote a number of books about his travels. Hardcover, DJ or No DJ, Very Good.
