UK, 1987, 1st edition. 277 pp, 29 maps. Book is printed on 8 1/2'' x 11'' paper, possibly a pre-publication galley. A comprehensive history, bibliography and reference to climbs in the Andes. Lists every book, map and magazine article, with cross referencing, to all peaks. Essential for those interested in climbing in the Andes. 

Large-format post bound softcover (rare first edition) in Near Fine condition. The post binding is loose, but could be replaced. The trade edition which did not come out for several years was a more normal 8 1/2'' tall. The plastic spiral binding is loose and should be replaced. This will not affect the value as it was a poor choice of bindings to begin with!
