BECAUSE IT IS THERE

A signed first edition by Edmund Hillary, the legendary mountaineer and Everest pioneer.

Bound in original cloth, the book is in fine condition, with edges lightly foxed but internally clean and unmarked.

The dust wrapper is present and original, showing light rubbing and soiling, with moderate chipping along the edges, but remains bright and intact.

Illustrated throughout with numerous black-and-white photographs documenting the expedition.

A collectible and historically significant volume, especially desirable with Hillary’s signature.
