First edition first print hardback of UP AND ABOUT: The Hard Road to Everest, by Doug Scott and published by Vertebrate Publishing in 2015. Signed to a previous owner by Scott on the title page.The book is in near fine condition (black cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine and decoration to front) with minor bumping to the head and tail of the spine. The book is in a near fine unclipped dust jacket which has light creasing to the edges of both covers, spine and top edge of the front inner flap. Internally a couple of pages towards the front of the book have a minor folding crease to the top corner, otherwise the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.
In Up and About, the first volume of his autobiography, Scott tells his story from his birth in Nottingham during the darkest days of war to the summit of the world. Surviving the unplanned bivouac without oxygen near the summit of Everest widened the range of what and how he would climb in the future. In fact, Scott established more climbs on the high mountains of the world after his ascent of Everest than before. Those climbs will be covered in the second volume of his life and times.
404 pages including black & white and colour photographs, Preface, Acknowledgements, Bibliography and Index.
