As told to James Ramsey Ullman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a 1955 UK reprint (2nd impression) of Tenzing Norgay's memoir, published in the USA under the title \u003cem\u003eTiger of the Snows\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eIt is signed and dated  (5\/3\/56) by Tenzing Norgay on the front free endpaper\u003c\/strong\u003e (first page of the book).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall the book is in pretty rough shape. Let's run through it. \u003cstrong\u003eOn the book itself\u003c\/strong\u003e: with stains on front board and spine; sun fading to spine; suspected repair to spine (it appears at least glued, possibly reinforced in some other manner); wear to all corners; several small holes in the cloth covering boards (at wear points - corners, top \u0026amp; bottom of spine); slight slant to spine; former owner name written in pen below Tenzing signature (ANGLAHMU); foxing to front free endpaper; minor toning throughout text block. \u003cstrong\u003eDust jacket\u003c\/strong\u003e is mostly complete, but missing a ~1 inch section on bottom of back cover and back inside flap. Some tears and chips missing at common wear points - corners and bends. NOT price-clipped (Price reads \"18\/- Net\"). Dust jacket encased in a protective mylar sleeve. Some foxing visible on back of jacket, but front image is unaffected. “Autographed copy” sticker is affixed to the brodart, not the jacket itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite all those flaws the book remains readable and handleable. It was likely someone's prized possession and has been well-loved. I encourage you to take it off my hands and treat it in the same way - with affection but not fear of ruination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardcover, 320 pages with four color and 45 black and white photographic plates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dirtbag Dan Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67891691159688,"sku":null,"price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/6765\/3768\/files\/DSC02494.jpg?v=1794281895","url":"https:\/\/dirtbagdan.com\/products\/man-of-everest-by-tenzing-norgay-1955-signed","provider":"Dirtbag Dan Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
