Book First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: Mint. First Edition. This mint unread copy is bound in illustrated card covers as issued. The text block is tight white, bright and square. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased charges will be quoted. This book was published to coincide with the exhibitions of the Antarctic photography of Herbert Ponting and Douglas Hurley (respectively photographers to Scott's last expedition and Shackleton's Transantarctic expedition) at the Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace. There is a comprehensive introduction to Antarctic exploration and journeys made before the famous Scott and Shackleton expeditions. The account of the ill-fated Franklin expedition is very interesting. There are short paragraphs of information explaining the background of most of the photographs and a section at the end about the method of photography used at the time. The weighty equipment and long development processes just makes it all the more remarkable that these images exist. Ref D 1.

Includes Foreword: HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh; Introduction: David Hempleman-Adams; Appendix I: The 1913 Fine Art Society Catalogue: Photographic Pictures of Mr. Herbert G. Ponting; Appendix 2: Brief Biographies; Appendix 3: Major Expeditions of the 'Heroic Age' of Antarctic Exploration 1839-1922; Appendix 4: The King's Albums; Bibliography; Index and Acknowledgments. Profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs, color photographs, maps, color map frontispiece, and color photographic front and rear endpapers. First U.S. Edition, First Printing. "A treasure trove of photographs - some never before reproduced in book form - from the two greatest Antarctic expeditions. Among the greatest achievements in the history of photography, those of the early polar explorers surely stand out, for the beauty of their images and the almost impossible conditions they encountered. And none of these more remarkable than the photographs recorded by the official chroniclers of two epic Antarctic expeditions - that of Robert Falcon Scott, beginning in 1910, which tragically resulted in his death; and, four years later, that of Ernest Shackleton, whose heroic sea journey from Elephant Island to South Georgia has become the stuff of legend. Their photographers - Herbert George Ponting and Frank Hurley - transported bulky cameras and glass plate negatives across the forbidding polar landscape to record some of the earliest images of this dramatic environment. That the photographs survived to be presented on their return to King George V is miraculous, and they have remained ever since in the Royal Collection. The Heart of the Great Alone reproduces the best of these marvelous images - ships encased in ice floes, ice cliffs and ravines, campsites and dog sleds, and the incomparable beauty of Antarctic flora and fauna. Together they form an invaluable record of an environment that global warming has forever changed. With a superb narrative drawing on Ponting's and Hurley's writings and other archival material from the Royal Collection, and with extended captions for each image, this book is a unique addition to the literature of polar exploration." - from the inner front jacket flap.
