1914 Ten Thousand Miles with a Dog Sled

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

The very scarce first UK edition, published in the same year as the US true first.

As Archdeacon of the Yukon, Stuck recounts arduous travel through Yukon River valleys and Arctic wilderness, including descriptions of frozen landscapes, accounts of logistical challenges and the customs of indigenous communities.

Illustrated with a frontispiece, a folding map to the rear, and with a further fifty-seven illustrations. Collated, complete.

A wonderful account of the enduring relationship between man and dog.
