Detailed Product Description

2002 [1934]. 279 pp, photos, maps. This is a gripping and highly readable account of the Houston-Mount Everest Expedition of 1933, which had the aim of flying over the highest mountain in the world, capturing the results on camera.

In 1933, the Everest Flight Committee carried out a photographic survey to gain otherwise unobtainable knowledge on Everest. They mapped a strip of about 2 by 20 miles, and recorded hitherto unknown meteorological and geographical discoveries. Currents and downdrafts made these flights especially dangerous. The ever-present Himalayan winds have an average velocity of 120 mph. 'The first flight over the summit of Everest, and film record, was a considerable achievement and a most dangerous undertaking.' -- Jill Neate, Mountaineering Literature. New Paperback.
