Lot #51: Lot of Vintage Book on Mountaineering, Mountain Climbing, Trekking, and Nature

I have just received a large collection of vintage and antique books (publishlished from 1900 to the 1980's) on mountaineering, mountain climbing, trekking, and nature that I will be selling off in small lots. There are some good books in these lots for either collecting, reading, or resale. All of the books are in used condition and many of the books have old prices written in pencil on the inside front cover or the ffep and some may have varying degrees of foxing from age. The books are ALL HARDCOVER, many with dust jackets, some first editions, some British editions, some American editions, some ex-lib. I will be posting the bibliographic information of every book in each lot so you may look them up (for subject information and value) if you are so inclined.
