Detailed Product Description
Paris, 1953. 184 pp, 46 photos. French Paperback, Wrappers. Near Fine. Tazieff participated in the first detailed exploration of the "Saint-Martin" La Verna cave system in the French Pyrenees. In 1952, while he was filming Marcel Loubens' ascent of the Pierre-Saint-Martin rock face, the cable of the hoist broke and Loubens fell over 80 meters. Loubens died 36 hours later but his body could only be recovered from the cave in 1954. He became famous in France after publishing a book entitled, "Le Gouffre de la Pierre Saint-Martin" in 1952.
