Detailed Product Description
London, Frederick Muller Ltd., 1957, 1st edition. 144 pp, 10 drawings. Small bright blue cloth hardcover, internal library rubber stamps, pocket removed, and handsome, clean and unchipped dust jacket. Near Fine.
T
he True Book About The North Pole
is the hardest to find of Eric Shipton's books to complete a collection.
The last time we offered a copy was in 2008. This is Eric Shipton's book for young people about the history of North Pole exploration. It is a companion to his book
The True Book About Everest
(called
Men Against Everest
in the USA.) Not in the Shipton six-book collection.
As this book never had an American edition it has become the most elusive of Shipton's books for American collectors.
