Etat : Very Good. 8vo. Hardcover in d/w. Very good. In the clear, bright Spring of 1926 three Englishmen set off into the remote wilderness of Canada, the Barren Lands. One of them, Jack Hornby, was already a legendary figure. "Hornby of the North" prided himself on his ability to live off the land. He feared the incursion of "the white man" into these beloved open spaces where the caribou and musk oxen migrated in enormous numbers. Hornby had abandoned England, but on his last trip home he had met up with a young cousin, Edgar Christian. Edgar was 17, and eager to make something of his life. His heroic and charismatic cousin promised to take him to Canada. Edgar would make his fortune by learning Jack's skills at trapping. Harold Adlard made the third man of the party. He too hoped to make his name and his fortune in the wilderness. "Cold Burial" is the extraordinary and gripping tale of their journey and the idealism and the aspirations that lay behind it. Hornby's stamina was quite properly the stuff of legend but unknown to Edgar and Harold he had tested it to the edge in a previous journey into the Barren Lands with Captain James Critchell-Bullock. They had barely survived the winter and both carried lessons from that experience; lessons with quite fatal consequences. Based on Edgar Christian's heart-rending journal and letters and the writings of Critchell-Bullock, "Cold Burial" is a haunting and compelling story of obsession, folly and fortitude. …

Etat : Nuevo. Etat de la jaquette : Rustica. 1ª. Pág./pages:318 400 gramos/grams nº 14 Depósito legal: B216102004 Idioma/Language:Castellano Dijo otro explorador y aventurero inglés, T E. Lawrence, que todos los hombres sueñan, pero no de la misma manera. Los que sueñan por la noche, durante los vagos recesos de la mente, despiertan de día con la sensación de que todo fue pura vanidad; pero los soñadores diurnos son hombres peligrosos, pues pueden convertir sus sueños en acción con los ojos bien abiertos. Esta es la historia de un hombre peligroso, Jack Hornby, que ya era una figura legendaria cuando una mañana de primavera de 1926 se embarcó en una expedición a los hielos remotos de Canadá junto a dos jóvenes inexpertos. Dos años antes, otro inglés, George Mallory, se había perdido en los hielos del Everest. Este libro se basa en los fragmentos del diario de su primo, un joven de 17 años, que pereció junto al resto de la expedición. Allí se describe la arrogancia y el estoicismo, la lucha inútil contra la naturaleza y se revelan las íntimas y pavorosas relaciones que mantienen la vanidad y el coraje. 14 x 19 x 2.…
