Detailed Product Description
Austria, 1980, 1st edition. 154 pp, 100+ color photos, map. In German. Larger hardcover with dust jacket. Fine condition.
SIGNED on the title page by Heinrich Harrer.
Harrer signed this book for us in 2004, on our second and final visit with him in Austria.
Heinrich Harrer wrote 31 books, and only a few were translated into English. He spent much of his life traveling the world, much like what Michael Palin is doing now, writing books and filming his adventures. Only the mountaineering titles were translated into English.
This is a book of color photos that Harrer took in the Himalaya as a follow up to his terrific 1978 book on Ladakh. It is in the same format, 11 inches high. After Harrer became famous from
White Spider
and especially
Seven Years in Tibet
, he spent a lot of his life visiting exotic parts of the world, meeting people, writing books, and making movies for television. In this book, which is primarily photographic, he show his most memorable images from his trips to Ladakh, Kashmir, the Garhwal, Annapurna area, and Sikkim. The book is half scenic, and half portraits of people in the Himalaya.
