Dealer Notes
Yakushi H185a; cf. Salkeld & Boyle H07 (the German edition); not in Perret. Hedin's survey of the various expeditions to Everest up to and including those of 1921 and 1922 appeared in his native Sweden; it was translated into German in the following year, but no English-language edition was ever published. The Swedish edition also includes final chapters on Tibet and its people, Persia and Mesopotamia.
