THE INDIAN ALPS AND HOW WE CROSSED THEM

An important and rare travel narrative by a lady traveler Nina Elizabeth in the Himalayas, this volume offers a unique perspective on the region’s geography, culture, and landscapes—at a time when female exploration was both exceptional and groundbreaking.

This first edition is in fine condition, bound in its original maroon gilt cloth hardback cover with all edges gilt. The book includes a fold-out map and 10 finely produced chromolithograph color illustrations by the author herself, accompanied by numerous in-text drawings.

A beautifully preserved and significant historical work, notable for both its visual and literary content.
